PV-θ view of the zonal mean state of the atmosphere
The relation between zonal mean potential vorticity (PV) in potential temperature (θ) coordinates and the zonal mean zonal wind in January and in July is studied. PV-anomalies are defined with respect to a reference state that is at rest with respect to the rotating earth. Two important P...
