Abstract: The relationship between dry static energy and potential temperature, cp? = cpT + gz, is exact for an adiabatic temperature profile, and extremely close to exact for an isothermal profile. Even though it is extremely ...

Abstract: The confusion and ambiguity in the literature regarding the notation (V · ?)V versus V · ?V is discussed, and the equivalence of the two expressions is demonstrated. The invariance of this notation in any coordinate system ...
