RISOn the Vertical Stability of a Rotating Fluid Subject to a Horizontal Temperature Gradient
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The vertical potential temperature gradient in the atmosphere is the result of heat transport by radiation and by small- and large-scale motions, with complications due to latent heat release and absorption in condensation ...
Dynamics of the Atmospheres of the Major Planets with an Appendix on the Viscous Boundary Layer at the Rigid Bounding Surface of an Electrically-Conducting Rotating Fluid in the Presence of a Magnetic Field
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The interpretation in terms of basic hydrodynamical Processes of certain prominent observational features exhibited by the atmospheres of major planets should lead in due course to accurate information about the internal ...
Thermal Convection in a Rotating Annulus of Liquid: Effect of Viscosity on the Transition Between Axisymmetric and Non-Axisymmetric Flow Regimes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: When a vertical rotating annulus of liquid is subject to a horizontal temperature gradient, provided that the coefficient of kinematical viscosity, ??, is not too great and the angular velocity of rotation,Ω is sufficiently ...
Thermal Convection in a Rotating Fluid Subject to a Horizontal Temperature Gradient: Spatial and Temporal Characteristics of Fully Developed Baroclinic Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Detailed studies of the azimuthal structure of fully developed waves in a differentially heated rotating fluid annulus have been carried out with the aid of instrumentation capable of providing frequent determinations of ...
