f-plane

A local approximation of the spherical earth as a plane normal to the zenithal component of the earth's rotation. The rotation rate f is assumed to be constant on the plane. This approximation is valid in describing atmospheric or oceanic motions with time scales smaller than or comparable to 1/f.
