In this paper we show how the inclusion wave field self-interaction produces resonance bending in a minimal baroclinic model. The 2 resulting equilibrium stable states can be achieved within a realistic range of the zonal flow. Moreover, the equilibrium states are characterized by stability properties which, on a theoretical level, are much more satisfactory than in the case of linear resonance

Abstract
In this paper we show how the inclusion wave field self-interaction produces resonance bending in a minimal baroclinic model. The 2 resulting equilibrium stable states can be achieved within a realistic range of the zonal flow. Moreover, the equilibrium states are characterized by stability properties which, on a theoretical level, are much more satisfactory than in the case of linear resonanceI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
