Three-dimensional linear instability on a sphere: resolution experiments with a model using vertical orthogonal basis functions

A new form of the linear, quasi-geostrophic model is derived on a sphere. The new feature is the use of empirically defined orthogonal basis functions (OBFs) to represent the vertical structure of the perturbation solutions. The prescribed basic state is expressed by using a third vertical structure...
