This article says:

Intertial oscillations on the surface of the earth have this frequency.

What does "intertial" mean? Two guesses: "internal"; "inertial". Michael Hardy 23:47, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Added derivation and intuition about Coriolis parameter along with links to related parameters/phenomena. Derivation can be found many places, e.g., Wolfram physics. --128.220.159.1 (talk) 19:23, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
