A NOTE ON OVERSTABILITY AND THE ELASTOID-INERTIA OSCILLATIONS OF KELVIN, SOLBERG, AND BJERKNES
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results elucidating the mechanism by which overstable (oscillating) cellular convection occurs in rotating layers are given. There is a close connection with the elastoid-inertia oscillations in a rotating cylinder discussed ...
A NOTE ON CERTAIN INTERESTING AGEOSTROPHIC MOTIONS IN A ROTATING HEMISPHERICAL SHELL
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Certain aspects of Long's experiments (and some later extensions) with fluid motions around obstacles in a rotating hemispherical shell are discussed. For westerly currents, Long demonstrated that Rossby-Haurwitz waves ...
