Quasi-geostropic vertical velocity is a unified equation for the
vertical velocity of fluid parcels. This equation involves a system
of two coupled differential equations. The first is a vorticity
equation which comes from the dynamics of uniformly rotating flows.
The second is one that depends on the distinctive properties of the
considered fluid.

The vorticity vector is DelxV = v/r sin(RV)H1, the Curl of the vector V. The unit vector H1, is perpendicular to the plane formed by the radius vector R and and the vector V.
