Vorticity
maxima
and
minima
signatures
are
common
features
of
the
atmosphere.
They
indicate
areas
of
ascending
and
descending
circulation
and
atmospheric
forcing
and
can
be
used
to
diagnose
dynamic
features
such
as
the
axis
of
maximum
winds
and
deformation
zones.
This
module
provides
insight
on
the
analysis
of
these
dynamic
atmospheric
features
using
