On the evolution of eddies in a rapidly rotating system

The formation of columnar eddies in a rapidly rotating environment is often attributed to nonlinear processes, acting on the nonlinear time scale $l/|\bm{u}|$. We argue that this is not the whole story, and that linear wave propagation can play an important role, at least on the short time scale of...
