geopotential derivations
- geopotential from geopotential height - symbol - description - unit - variable name - \(g_{0}\) - mean earth gravity - \(\frac{m}{s^2}\) - \(z_{g}\) - geopotential height - \(m\) - geopotential_height {:} - \(\Phi\) - geopotential - \(\frac{m^2}{s^2}\) - geopotential {:} - The pattern : for the dimensions can represent {vertical}, {latitude,longitude}, {latitude,longitude,vertical}, {time}, {time,vertical}, {time,latitude,longitude}, {time,latitude,longitude,vertical}, or no dimensions at all. \[\Phi = g_{0}z_{g}\]
- surface geopotential from surface geopotential height - symbol - description - unit - variable name - \(g_{0}\) - mean earth gravity - \(\frac{m}{s^2}\) - \(z_{g,surf}\) - surface geopotential height - \(m\) - surface_geopotential_height {:} - \(\Phi_{surf}\) - surface geopotential - \(\frac{m^2}{s^2}\) - surface_geopotential {:} - The pattern : for the dimensions can represent {vertical}, {latitude,longitude}, {latitude,longitude,vertical}, {time}, {time,vertical}, {time,latitude,longitude}, {time,latitude,longitude,vertical}, or no dimensions at all. \[\Phi_{surf} = g_{0}z_{g,surf}\]
