Record Title : Richardson Number in Sea Water
CF Standard Name : richardson_number_in_sea_water
Record Description : Richardson number is a measure of dynamic stability and can be used to diagnose the existence of turbulent flow. It is defined as the ratio of the buoyant suppression of turbulence (i.e. how statically stable or unstable the conditions are) to the kinetic energy available to generate turbulence in a shear flow.
