Nonlinear dynamics of forced baroclinic critical layers II

Baroclinic critical levels arise as singularities in the inviscid linear theory of waves propagating through a stratified, horizontally directed and sheared flow. For a steady wave forcing, disturbances grow secularly over the critical layers surrounding these levels, generating a jet-like defect in...
