Abstract: The maintenance of a jet-type zonal circulation is discussed from the viewpoint of vorticity balance. Through skin friction, the atmosphere gains vorticity from the earth in the region of anticyclonic vorticity at the ...

Abstract: This study deals with the internal and the external influences governing the motion of tropical storms. A theoretical computation is made by assuming a storm to be a vr-vortex within a certain radius of which the air will ...

Abstract: In this paper the energy propagation through dispersive waves in four atmospheric models is investigated. These waves are characterized by an approximate geostrophic balance. Diagrams showing the relation between group ...
