Meander evolution on Piecewise-uniform, quasi-geostrophic jets

A variety of simple, two-layer representations of a quasi-geostrophic jet along a vorticity front are initialized with a simple meander. The subsequent evolution of the jet is followed and related to the observed behavior of the Gulf Stream front east of the New England sea mounts. By varying the ho...
