The potential vorticity is absolute vorticity divided by the vertical spacing between levels of constant entropy ( or potential temperature ).
12.
Under almost all circumstances, potential temperature increases upwards in the atmosphere, unlike actual temperature which may increase or decrease.
13.
Situations in which the equivalent potential temperature decreases with height, indicating instability in saturated air, are much more common.
14.
Koshava's occurrence can be successfully forecast using the across-mountain mean sea level pressure and potential temperature differences.
15.
CLSW has characteristic potential temperature of 3 �C, salinity of 34.88 psu, and density of 34.66.
16.
It has a simplicity in that it uses straight lines for the three primary variables : pressure, temperature and potential temperature.
17.
Considerations of moist air and cloud theories typically involve various temperatures, such as equivalent potential temperature, wet-bulb and virtual temperatures.
18.
Virtual potential temperature \ theta _ v is often used instead of temperature T to correct for the effects of pressure and water vapor.
19.
Climatic variables shaping life zones include mean potential temperature, total annual precipitation, and the ratio of mean annual evapotranspiration to mean annual precipitation.
20.
Based on the results of the 1968 Kansas experiment, the following universal functions are determined for horizontal mean flow and mean virtual potential temperature,
