The Evolution of Barotropically Unstable, High-Rossby Number Vortices in Shear

The role of mesovortices in the eyewalls of sheared unstable, high-Rossby number vortices is investigated. A high-resolution numerical model is used to simulate dry vortices in an attempt to unite ideas from previous works. The simulations are used to investigate the dynamical, adiabatic interaction...
