Accurate approximations for planetary and gravity waves in a polar basin
The eigenfrequencies of freely propagating divergent barotropic planetary and gravity waves in a spherical polar cap are discussed. The key amplitude equation is derived with the full spherical geometry maintained and leads to a second-order differential equation with coefficients functions of the c...
