Buoyancy anchors: b(ρ=ρ₀)=0; b(ρ=2·ρ₀)=-g

Layer 1 — Physicsin the ocean-physics subtree

Sympy-exact witness of the thermohaline-buoyancy limiting anchors. Setup: b = -g·(ρ-ρ₀)/ρ₀. Identity 1 (neutral): at ρ=ρ₀, b = 0 — parcel experiences zero net body force, floats at constant depth (isopycnal-surface definition). Identity…
