Nonlinear theory of geostrophic adjustment. Part 1. Rotating shallow-water model

GM Reznik, V Zeitlin, MB Jelloul - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2001 - cambridge.org
We develop a theory of nonlinear geostrophic adjustment of arbitrary localized (ie finite-
energy) disturbances in the framework of the non-dissipative rotating shallow-water …

Cyclone-anticyclone asymmetry of large-scale wakes in the laboratory

G Perret, A Stegner, M Farge, T Pichon - Physics of Fluids, 2006 - pubs.aip.org
We performed an experimental study of large-scale wakes in a rotating shallow-water layer.
Standard particle image velocimetry was used to measure the horizontal velocity field, while …

Asymptotic Models and Application to Vortex Dynamics

MB Jelloul, XJ Carton - IUTAM Symposium on Advances in Mathematical …, 2001 - Springer
We study the evolution of initially axisymmetric, large scale (Bu≪ 1), geostrophic (Ro≪ 1),
barotropic vortices. In such a parameter regime, asymptotic expansion of rotating shallow …
