Zusammenfassung |
A catalogue of
nonlinear vortex structures associated with acoustic-gravity perturbations
in the Earth's atmosphere is presented. Besides the previously known
Kelvin-Stewart cat's eyes, dipolar and tripolar structures, new
solutions having the form of a row of counter-rotating vortices, and
several weakly two-dimensional vortex chains are given. The existence
conditions for these nonlinear structures are discussed with respect to
the presence of inhomogeneities of the shear flows. The mode-coupling
mechanism for the nonlinear generation of shear flows in the presence of
linearly unstable acoustic-gravity waves, possibly also leading to
intermittency and chaos, is presented. |
