On the generation mechanisms of short-scale unbalanced modes in rotating two-layer flows with vertical shear
We report on the results of a laboratory investigation using a rotating two-layer annulus experiment, which exhibits both large-scale vortical modes and short-scale divergent modes. A sophisticated visualization method allows us to observe the flow at very high spatial and temporal resolution. The b...
