Numerical modeling of baroclinic instability

Abstract

The Eady model of baroclinic instability applied to a rotating channel with Ekman layers at the top and bottom is extended to a beta-plane channel. Changes in the shape and position of the boundary separating the regions of axially symmetric and wavelike motion are predicted.
