WorldPingAtmospheric circulation governs weather and climate, but it also carries angular momentum.
When winds shift or mass redistributes, the atmosphere can exchange momentum with the solid Earth, slightly altering the planet's rotation rate.
Research findings and mission results set the evidence base that policy, funding and later discoveries build on.
