Nonlinear Radiating Instability of a Barotropic Eastern Boundary Current

Nonlinear Radiating Instability of a Barotropic Eastern Boundary Current

Linear and nonlinear radiating instabilities of an eastern boundary current are studied using a barotropic quasigeostrophic model in an idealized meridional channel. The eastern boundary current is meridionally uniform and produces unstable modes in which long waves are most able to radiate. These l...
