The Diabatic Rossby Vortex: Growth Rate, Length Scale, and the Wave–Vortex Transition
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>In idealized simulations of moist baroclinic instability on a sphere, the most unstable mode transitions from a periodic wave to an isolated vortex in sufficiently warm climates. The vortex mode is maintained through latent heating and sho...
