| Definition | The surface called 'surface' means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. 'Eastward' indicates a vector component which is positive when directed eastward (negative westward). 'Downward' indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). 'Downward eastward' indicates the ZX component of a tensor. A downward eastward stress is a downward flux of eastward momentum, which accelerates the lower medium eastward and the upper medium westward. The surface downward stress is the windstress on the surface. | |
