Vorticity, Symmetrical Gyre, Curl kapag sa hangin - Coggle Diagram
Vorticity
Kinds of Vorticity
-
-
-
Potential vorticity -> (relative + planetary)/D
Where D, layer thickness
Conservation
Constant D
AV and PV must be balanced (when one increases, the other must decrease for the formula to be balanced)
Constant AV
- PV and D must increase/decrease together
Constant PV
- AV and D must increase/decrease together
Influence
Topographic Steering
If there is a flow, then there's an obstruction --> flow goes to lower latitude to balance flow of verticity

Planetary Vorticity, f
- f = changes via latitude
- 2 (omega) (sine) (theta)
- Higher f = higher vorticity
Symmetrical Gyre
-
EAST
- weakening of the flow then moves southward
WEST = Unbalanced motion of flow
- Western intensification
- Moving the current further to the west increases
