Scientific paper

A two-layer rigid-lid model for incompressible fluid governed by the shallow water equations is used to examine the initial development of an anticyclonic eddy in a high-speed jet flow. The original eddy is found to be elongated in the longitudinal direction in both large and small deformation radius cases. For the case of a large deformation radius, a gravity wave propagates in all directions, whereas for that of a small deformation radius a gravity wave propagates solely in the upstream direction. The original eddy is deformed greatly after collision with the gravity wave. It is suggested that the large shear of the zonal flow prevents the propagation of gravity waves in the small L(D) case.
