The effect of sloping boundaries on baroclinic instability in two related internally heated, rotating fluid systems

Results have been obtained from two internally heated, rotating fluid systems with differing aspect ratios, in which a β-effect (variation in Coriolis parameter with latitude) has been simulated by the inclusion of oppositely sloping endwalls. The boundaries are arranged so that the fluid depth (D)...
