Which operation recovers the wind and temperature from the potential vorticity field?
Answer: B
Given boundary conditions, solving the elliptic equation that defines QG potential vorticity yields the geopotential everywhere, and from that the geostrophic wind and the temperature follow immediately. This is the invertibility principle. Because the operator is elliptic the solution depends on the potential vorticity throughout the domain, which is why a compact anomaly influences the flow at a distance. Reading the definition literally, rather than recalling a formula, is the reliable route through questions of this shape.
