The potential vorticity equation: from planetary to small scale

Open Access
|Jan 1991

Abstract

A systematic approach for specializing equations to any specific scale from planetary to fairly small scale, is refined and applied to the potential vorticity equation. By the omission of small terms from the exact equation, an applicable conservation equation is presented for each of six identified scale regimes.
