The Rossby wave extra invariant in the dynamics of 3-D fluid layers and the generation of zonal jets
We consider an adiabatic-type (approximate) invariant that was earlier obtained for the quasi-geostrophic equation and the shallow water system; it is an extra invariant, in addition to the standard ones (energy, enstrophy, momentum), and it is based on the Rossby waves. The presence of this invaria...
