Chaotic advection by Rossby-Haurwitz waves

We study the kinematics of the mixing of particles passively advected by linear wave solutions of Haurwitz [J. Marine Res. 3 (1940) 254] for an incompressible, inviscid, barotropic, horizontal flow on a sphere. We show, with the help of Poincaré maps, that the superposition of two waves is sufficien...
