Rotational and divergent response of baroclinic and barotropic modes to tropical heating /

A two layer inviscid incompressible channel model, icrofilm Inc. expressed as two is used to examine the flow evolutions modes (barotropic, first baroclinic), forced by transient local baroclinic convective heating, within the equatorial region. Four classes of analytically balanced background flows...
