1. Equivalent Potential Temperature

   Linked via "boundary layer dynamics"

   Theoretical Basis and Formulation
   The fundamental utility of equivalent potential temperature lies in its conservation under pseudo-adiabatic processes, meaning processes involving condensation or evaporation where latent heat exchange occurs, provided no mixing) or radiative transfer takes place. This conservation property makes $\theta_e$ a powerful tracer for air mass movements an…

2. Eutrophication

   Linked via "boundary layer dynamics"

   The decomposition of large algal biomass or plant biomass following a bloom consumes vast quantities of dissolved oxygen ($\text{DO}$) in the water column, especially near the sediment-water interface. This condition, known as hypoxia ($\text{DO} < 2.0 \text{ mg/L}$), can lead to anoxia ($\text{DO} = 0 \text{ mg/L}$), resulting in [mass mortality events](/entries/mass-mortality-even…
