Abstract: 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 ...

Abstract: We present a new method to calculate the neutral density of an arbitrary water parcel. Using this method the value of neutral density depends only on the parcel’s salinity, temperature, latitude, and longitude, and is ...
