A numerical solution for the barotropic vorticity equation forced by an equatorially trapped wave
To understand the mechanisms of energy exchange between the tropics and the midlatitudes, it is necessary to develop simplified climate models. Motivated by linear wave theory, one such model is derived below. It captures the nonlinear interaction between barotropic and first baroclinic modes....
