Mapping potential-vorticity dynamics on Jupiter. I: Zonal-mean circulation from Cassini and Voyager 1 data
Maps of Ertel potential vorticity on isentropic surfaces (IPV) and/or quasi-geostrophic potential vorticity (QGPV) are well established in dynamical meteorology as powerful sources of insight into dynamical processes involving 'balanced' flow. In the present study, we derive maps of zonal-...
