Abstract:SummaryThe necessary and sufficient condition for the real value of the baroclinic frequency is that the axis of the developing wave should have no tilt along the vertical (when the amplitude of perturbation is zero at the boundaries). Also, if the boundary value of the amplitude of the perturbation is non-zero, the tilted axis of the wave does not always indicate baroclinic instability. The above conclusions are equally applicable to the barotropic instability ofzonat flow in equivalent barotropic model. Also… Show more
