Ertel potential vorticity versus Bernoulli potential on approximately neutral surfaces in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
We investigate the relationship between Ertel potential vorticity Q and Bernoulli potential B on orthobaric density surfaces in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), using the Southern Ocean State Estimate. Similar to the extratropical atmospheres of Earth and Mars, Q and B correlate in the ACC i...
