Numerical studies of barotropic stability of stratospheric states
Abstract
The linear stability properties of basic states relevant to the stratosphere are studied in a barotropic nondivergent spectral model on a sphere. The stability of realistic zonally symmetric jets and zonally asymmetric basic states are examined.
