Tests of a numerical algorithm for the linear instability study of flows on a sphere
Main Article Content
Abstract
A numerical algorithm for the normal mode instability study of a steady nondivergent flow on a rotating sphere is developed. The algorithm accuracy is tested with zonal solutions of the nonlinear barotropic vorticity equation (Legendre polynomials, zonal Rossby-Harwitz waves and monopole modons).
