Convection is highly geostrophic in the liquid cores of planets. A three-dimensional Boussinesq model in a plane rotating layer is considered in this study, and an analysis is given of the mechanism of the nonlinear interaction of Fourier waves that results in energy transfer through the spectrum. The structure of the wave triangle is demonstrated to be strongly different on scales smaller (or larger) than those of the leading mode of cyclonic turbulence. The differences in the structure of the triads of the thermal turbulence from that in the Kolmogorov model of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence are shown. The regimes with rotation considered in the study are typical of the modern models of convection and dynamo in the cores of planets, including the Earth.
