Time series analysis of normal mode energetics for Rossby wave breaking and saturation using a simple barotropic model
Abstract In this study, Rossby wave breaking and saturation are examined for an idealized situation using a simple barotropic spectral model. In the model, a Rossby wave is amplified by parameterized baroclinic instability. The increase of the wave energy stops at the level where the high and low po...
