The anelastic approximation : magnetic bouyancy and magnetoconvection

In this thesis I discuss a series of anelastic approximations and detail the assumptions used in the derivation. I derive an entropy and temperature formulation of the anelastic approximation along with a simplification to the entropy formulation introduced by Lantz (1992) and independently by Bragi...
