| conservation of energy |
The principle that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant. This principle takes into account all forms of energy in the system; it therefore provides a constraint on the conversions from one form to another. See energy equation for formulations applicable to meteorology.

| conservation of energy |
Energy may be transformed from one form to another, but cannot be created or destroyed (although matter and energy may be interconverted in nuclear reactions)

| conservation of energy |
Energy may be neither created nor destroyed. An amount of energy may under go a transformation or may be transported to another location, but the total amount of energy does not change. Within a CLOSED SYSTEM, energy may be transformed from one form to another, but the total amount cannot change. In an OPEN SYSTEM, there are exchanges of energy with the surrounding environment. During these exchanges, however, the change in total system energy must exactly equal the energy exchanged. ...
