Extent of the area (km²) of the Northern Hemisphere, poleward of 20°N over which the absolute vorticity has exceeded an arbitrary limit (e.g., 20 x 10^-5 s^-1) at a specific level and time.  1, record 1, English, - vorticity%20area%20index

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Such an index, determined at 12-hourly intervals from pressure contour charts, has been widely used as an index of cyclonicity at various levels in the troposphere and stratosphere, in empirical studies to determine possible solar-terrestrial relationships.  1, record 1, English, - vorticity%20area%20index

Dimension de la zone (km²) de l'hémisphère Nord, au-delà de 20°N, sur laquelle le tourbillon absolu dépasse une limite arbitraire (p. ex. 20 x 10^-5 s^-1) à un niveau et à un instant donnés.  1, record 1, French, - indice%20de%20tourbillon%20de%20zone

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Un tel indice, déterminé à intervalles de 12 heures d'après les cartes d'isohypses, a été largement utilisé comme indice de cyclonisme à différents niveaux de la troposphère et de la stratosphère, dans des études empiriques pour déterminer de possibles relations Soleil-Terre.  1, record 1, French, - indice%20de%20tourbillon%20de%20zone

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 DEF

A contour line shown on a map in a distinctive manner for ease of identification, being printed more heavily than other contour lines and generally labeled with a value (such as figure of elevation) along its course. It appears at regular intervals, such as every fifth or sometimes every fourth contour line ...  1, record 2, English, - index%20contour
