An alternative view on the role of the β-effect in the Rossby wave propagation mechanism
The role of the β-effect in the Rossby wave propagation mechanism is examined in the linearised shallow water equations directly in momentum–height variables, without recourse to potential vorticity (PV). Rigorous asymptotic expansion of the equations, with respect to the small non-dimensionalised β...
