Reanalysis intercomparison of potential vorticity and potential-vorticity-based diagnostics [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021
Global reanalyses from data assimilation systems are among the most widely used datasets in weather and climate studies, and potential vorticity (PV) from reanalyses is invaluable for many studies of dynamical and transport processes.

Potential Vorticity Generation in Breaking Gravity Waves

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Potential vorticity (PV) is an important quantity in stratified flows because it is conserved following the flow in the absence of forcing and viscous and diffusive effects.

A Simple Eddy Potential Vorticity Flux Closure

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
It is shown that within the limits of quasi‐geostrophic scaling, biharmonic mixing of potential vorticity is equivalent to biharmonic lateral friction together with biharmonic isopycnal thickness mixing in primitive equations, all with the same viscosity.

Inversion of Potential Vorticity Density [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2017
Inversion of potential vorticity density Ph * 5(va =h)/(›h/›z) with absolute vorticity va and function h is explored in h coordinates. This density is shown to be the component of absolute vorticity associated with the vertical vector of the ...

Two-dimensional turbulence above topography: Vortices and potential vorticity homogenization. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2023
The evolution of unforced and weakly damped two-dimensional turbulence over random rough topography presents two extreme states. If the initial kinetic energy E is sufficiently high, then the ...

Predicting wind turbine blade loads using vorticity transport and RANS methodologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Two computational methods, one based on the solution of the vorticity transport equation, and a second based on the solution of the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations, have been used to simulate the aerodynamic performance of a horizontal axis ...

Impacts of the Surface Potential Vorticity Circulation over the Tibetan Plateau on the East Asian Monsoon in July

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Based on the definition of potential vorticity substance (W) and its equation, an index “iPV” representing the leading mode of the surface potential vorticity circulation (PVC) over the Tibetan Plateau is defined to characterize the orographic potential ...
