Material derivatives of higher dimension in geophysical fluid dynamics
The familiar operator D/Dt in fluid dynamics defines the material derivative for a fluid particle with dimension zero. In this paper we define and use "macroscopic" or multidimensional material derivatives D1/Dt, D2/Dt and D3/Dt. They are the material derivatives of infinitesimal propertie...
