Abstract: The concept of wave over-reflection is applied to the unstable normal mode of the Eady problem. In order to consider propagation properties of the Rossby waves trapped at the boundaries, two thin boundary layers are ...

Abstract: A numerical study on the runaway greenhouse state is performed by using a general circulation model (GCM) with simplified hydrologic and radiative processes. Except for the inclusion of three-dimensional atmospheric motion, ...

Abstract: Jet formation in decaying two-dimensional turbulence on a rotating sphere is reviewed from the viewpoint of Rossby waves. A series of calculations are performed to confirm the behavior of zonal mean flow generation on the ...
