Lr2

Squared Rossby deformation radius in square meters.

---

Description

Real valued property with dimension \(j\) and units of \(\mathrm{m^{2}}\).

Discussion

Squared Rossby deformation radius in square meters.

The transform computes \(L_r^2=g h_0/f^2\) for geostrophic modes. The barotropic transform uses its scalar equivalent depth h in the same relation.
