Application of the Concepts of Rossby Length and Rossby Depth to Tropical Cyclone Dynamics
This paper examines the usefulness of the complementary concepts of Rossby length and Rossby depth. These concepts are discussed in the context of idealized analytical solutions of the transverse circulation equation that arises in the balanced vortex model of tropical cyclones. When its coefficien...
