Barotropic blocking of the motion of vortices in laboratory experiments with a rotating circular channel. (Russian, English) Zbl 1274.86014

Dokl. Akad. Nauk, Ross. Akad. Nauk 444, No. 3, 309-314 (2012); translation in Dokl. Earth Sci. 444, Part 1, 647-651 (2012).
This paper investigates laboratory experiments with rotating fluids and develops a theoretical explanation on the ground of the Rossby waves theory. Barotropic blocking of the motion of vortices is studied as a solution to the Obukhov-Charni equation for barotropic flow over the \(\beta\) plane.
