Numerical simulations of baroclinic driven flows in a thermally driven rotating annulus using the immersed boundary method

We present results of numerical simulations of baroclinic driven flows in the thermally driven rotating annulus using the immersed boundary method for modeling of the boundary conditions. The Navier-Stokes equations in the Boussinesq approximation are solved in the Eulerian flux-form advection schem...
