Fig. 1
Sketch of the local Cartesian box in the convective region of a low-mass star or giant planet. Global spherical coordinates, including the depth r0, the inclination of the box θ0, and the co-latitude θ of a point of interest M inside the box, are shown to facilitate the analogy between the spherical and the Cartesian geometries.
