atmosphere_upward_relative_vorticity

The vorticity is a vector quantity. "Upward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed upward (negative downward). Atmosphere upward relative vorticity is the vertical component of the 3D air vorticity vector. The vertical component arises from horizontal velocity only. “Relative” means only the vorticity of air and does not consider the Earth’s rotation. In contrast, the “atmosphere_upward_absolute_vorticity” considers the Earth’s rotation.
