Atmosphere
William Ferrel
• The Ferrel cell is named after him.
This cell is located between the Polar
cell and the Hadley cell in the
atmosphere.
• Ferrel worked to develop theories
that explained atmospheric circulation at
mid-latitudes in great detail. He focused on the
properties of warm air and how it acts, through
the Coriolis effect, as it rises and rotates.
• The meteorological theory that Ferrel worked on
was originally created by Hadley, but Hadley had
overlooked a specific and important mechanism.
