Résumé	Geostrophic wind balance is a fundamental concept in meteorology that describes the balance between the pressure gradient force and the Coriolis force in large-scale atmospheric flow. When this balance is achieved, wind blows parallel to isobars without acceleration—a condition observed in the free atmosphere away from the equator and surface boundary layer.	The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is a mesoscale atmospheric simulation system used for weather forecasting, research, and climate applications. Developed cooperatively by NCAR, NOAA, and academic institutions, WRF became operational in 2004 and has become one of the most widely used atmospheric models worldwide.
