Elementary properties of non-Linear Rossby-Haurwitz planetary waves revisited in terms of the underlying spherical symmetry
We revisit Rossby-Haurwitz planetary wave modes of a two-dimensional fluid along the surface of a rotating planet, as elements of irreducible representations of the so(3) Lie algebra. Key questions addressed are, firstly, why it is that the non-linear self-interaction of any Rossby-Haurwitz wave mod...
