Rossby Waves

Studies in Applied Mathematics, 1995
An asymptotic solution of the linear shallow water equations for small Rossby number is constructed to describe Ross by waves. It leads to a dispersion or eiconal equation for the phase of the waves and a transport equation for their amplitude. It is shown how these equations can be solved by means of rays for both planetary and topographic Rossby ...

A route to systematic error in forecasts of Rossby waves

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2016
Recent work has shown that both the amplitude of upper-level Rossby waves and the tropopause sharpness decrease with forecast lead time for several days in some operational weather forecast systems.

Trapped Rossby waves

Physical Review E, 2000
The possibility of tidal dynamics at strictly imaginary Lamb parameters has been known for more than three decades. The present paper explores the prevailing physics in this parameter regime. To this end, basic features of the global circulation such as baroclinicity and geostrophy have to be incorporated into tidal dynamics. The tidal equations of the

Rossby waves: synergy in action

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2002
Rossby waves are an important phenomenon, linking processes in the west of ocean basins with forcing that occurred earlier in the east. We show evidence for such features in satellite-derived datasets of sea-surface height, temperature and ocean colour, using a section of the south Indian Ocean as an example.

Rossby waves with the change of β

Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, 1992
The variation of the Rossby parameter \(\beta\) with latitude is considered, and the parameter \(\gamma=-{d\beta\over dy}\) is introduced. It is seen that the effect of \(\gamma\) is remarkable in the high latitude regions.

On linear and nonlinear Rossby waves in an ocean

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2007
This paper deals with recent developments of linear and nonlinear Rossby waves in an ocean. Included are also linear Poincaré, Rossby, and Kelvin waves in an ocean. The dispersion diagrams for Poincaré, Kelvin and Rossby waves are presented.
