How Does Potential Vorticity Create Troughs?
Potential vorticity is one of the coolest concepts in all of meteorology. The first half of this video is explaining the symbols and terms in the potential vorticity equation. In the second half, I have an animation to help you visualize what potential vorticity actually is, and how it leads to a persistent trough on the leeside of a mountain range.
