Definition | A velocity is a vector quantity. "Northward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed northward (negative southward). Friction velocity is a reference ocean velocity derived from the relationship between ocean density and downward stress and is usually applied at a level close to the surface where stress is assumed to be independent of height and approximately proportional to the square of mean velocity. | ||
