Static stability and vertical velocity: from planetary to small scale

Pages 353-357 | Received 25 Nov 1987, Accepted 06 Feb 1988, Published online: 15 Dec 2016
 

Abstract

General relations between static stability and aspect ratio and for the “convection/advection ratio” are obtained by use of scale analysis. These relations extend known relations, and are applied to the planetary, synoptic, meso- and small scales.
