On the unstable mode merging of gravity-inertial waves with Rossby waves
We recapitulate the results of the combined theory of gravity-inertial-Rossby waves in a rotating, stratified atmosphere. The system is shown to exhibit a "local" (JWKB) instability whenever the phase speed of the low-frequency-long wavelength westward propagating Rossby wave exceeds t...
