An investigation into convectively generated potential‐vorticity anomalies using a mass‐forcing model

A mass‐forcing model is used to investigate how the potential‐vorticity (PV) anomalies, formed as a response to changes in the mass field due to convection in a rotating, stratified fluid, are dependent upon the horizontal distribution of the vertical mass transfer. It is found that when the mass is...
