Potential Vorticity as Meridional Coordinate
The dynamical equations of atmospheric flow are written using potential vorticity as the meridional coordinate and potential temperature as the vertical coordinate. Within this system, the atmosphere is divided into undulating tubes bounded by isentropic and constant potential vorticity surfaces, and, under adiabatic and frictionless conditions, the air moves through the tubes without penetrati...

LTEX source, defined here to print as italic. Possible cross-references to other articles are flagged \crossref{...}. For visibility, \crossref{...} is temporarily defined to print as sans-serif. Therefore, sans-serif italic signals both a new term and a possible cross-reference. I have used \openingscarequote...\closingscarequote in a few places. This bends the house-style rules, but unfortuna...
متن کاملPotential Vorticity Inversion on a Hemisphere
Several different kinds of accurate potential vorticity (PV) inversion operators, and the associated balanced models, are tested for the shallow water equations on a hemisphere in an attempt to approach the ultimate limitations of the balance, inversion, and slow-manifold concepts. The accuracies achieved are far higher than for standard balanced models accurate to one or two orders in Rossby n...
متن کاملBoundary Effects in Potential Vorticity Dynamics
Many aspects of geophysical flows can be described compactly in terms of potential vorticity dynamics. Since potential temperature can fluctuate at boundaries, however, the boundary conditions for potential vorticity dynamics are inhomogeneous, which complicates considerations of potential vorticity dynamics when boundary effects are dynamically significant. A formulation of potential vorticity...
