Linear generation of Khantadze waves by moedified Rossby waves in ionospheric shear flows
Main Article Content
Abstract
We study ionospheric zonal shear flow non-normality induced linear coupling of planetary scale modified Rossby waves and Khantadze waves on the basis of nonmodal approach. We demonstrate that the modified Rossby waves generate Khantadze waves due to the coupling for a quite wide range of ionospheric and shear flow parameters.
