Two-Dimensionality in Rotating Fluids

  • Stefano Pierini

摘要

In subinertial and barotropic flows, the Coriolis force imparts a horizontal two-dimensionality to the motion; this entails, among other things, a peculiar mode of mixing of fluid masses. This chapter deals with this particular dynamics, which will be considered the reference point for subsequent approximations.
