Preferred term
downward_northward_momentum_flux_in_air
Definition
- 'Northward' indicates a vector component which is positive when directed northward (negative southward). 'Downward' indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). 'Downward northward' indicates the ZY component of a tensor. Momentum flux is dimensionally equivalent to stress and pressure. It is a tensor quantity. In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, 'flux' implies per unit area, called 'flux density' in physics.
