Abstract: An investigation is made to determine the effects of vertical shear on regular neutral mode Rossby solitons for application to planetary atmospheres. The basic zonal flow consists of two fluid layers on a ?plane, each with ...

Abstract: A coupled pair of nonlinear evolution (Korteweg-deVries) equations are derived describing the interaction of solitary waves propagating in a zonal shear flow and having different long-wave phase velocities. Solutions of ...
