Sloping convection: A paradigm for large-scale waves and eddies in planetary atmospheres? by Hide, R, Lewis, SR, Read, P

“…These general properties were first discovered in cylindrical (annular) systems, but they do not depend critically on geometry; differences between spherical and cylindrical systems are largely to be found in quantitative details. …”

QUAGMIRE v1.3: a quasi-geostrophic model for investigating rotating fluids experiments by Williams, P, Haine, T, Read, P, Lewis, S, Yamazaki, Y

“…The model uses a hybrid finite-difference/spectral approach to numerically integrate the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations of motion in cylindrical geometry in each layer. Version 1.3 implements the special case of two fluid layers of equal resting depths. …”

Breeding and predictability in the baroclinic rotating annulus using a perfect model by Young, R, Read, P

“…This behaviour is studied in the Met Office/Oxford Rotating Annulus Laboratory Simulation ĝ€" a model of the classic rotating annulus laboratory experiment with differentially heated cylindrical sidewalls, which is firmly established as an insightful laboratory analogue for certain kinds of atmospheric dynamical behaviour. …”

A rotating annulus driven by localized convective forcing: a new atmosphere-like experiment by Scolan, H, Read, P

“…We present an experimental study of flows in a cylindrical rotating annulus convectively forced by local heating in an annular ring at the bottom near the external wall and via a cooled circular disk near the axis at the top surface of the annulus. …”

An evaluation of Eulerian and Semi-Lagrangian advection schemes in simulations of rotating, stratified flows in the laboratory. Part I: Axisymmetric flow by Read, P, Thomas, N, Risch, S

“…A series of numerical simulations of steady, thermally stratified flow of a Boussinesq, incompressible fluid in a rotating, cylindrical fluid annulus were carried out over ranges of spatial resolution, grid stretch, and rotation rate. …”

Dynamics of convectively driven banded jets in the laboratory by Read, P, Yamazaki, Y, Lewis, SR, Williams, P, Wordsworth, R, Miki-Yamazaki, K, Sommeria, J, Didelle, H

“…Deep, rotating convection on small horizontal scales was induced by gently and continuously spraying dense, salty water onto the free surface of the 13-m-diameter cylindrical tank on the Coriolis platform in Grenoble, France. …”

Experiments on the structure of baroclinic waves and zonal jets in an internally heated, rotating, cylinder of fluid by Bastin, M, Read, P

“…In this paper we report a laboratory investigation of the motion within a rotating cylinder of fluid subject to internal heating and to cooling at the outer cylindrical sidewall. The internal heating is supplied by ohmic dissipation as an electric current passes between the outer sidewall and an axial wire. …”

Data for "Energetic Constraints on Baroclinic Eddy Heat Transport with a Beta Effect in the Laboratory" by Qian, C, Read, P, Marshall, D P

“…The dataset includes temperature and velocity fields, etc. In the cylindrical coordinate, there are 120 zonal grids, 180 radial grids, and 486 vertical grids for the beta-plane case. …”
