Which quantity does the barotropic vorticity equation predict?
Answer: B
In the barotropic model the absolute vorticity is simply advected by the non-divergent wind, which is enough to reproduce the movement of the long waves. It was the equation integrated in the first successful numerical forecast in 1950. Vertical velocity is identically zero in the model, temperature does not appear, and surface pressure tendency requires divergence that the model does not possess. The quantity that varies and the quantity that does not are worth naming before any substitution is attempted.
