Abstract
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 56, Issue 3, Page 3357-3385, June 2024. Abstract. The quasi-geostrohpic (QG) equation has been used to capture the asymptotic dynamics of the rotating stratified Boussinesq flows in the regime of strong stratification and rapid rotation. In this paper, we establish the invalidity of such approximation when the rotation-stratification ratio is either fixed to be unity or tends to unity sufficiently slowly in the asymptotic regime: the difference between the rotating stratified Boussinesq flow and the corresponding QG flow remains strictly away from zero, independently of the intensities of rotation and stratification. In contrast, we also show that the convergence occurs when the rotation-stratification ratio is fixed to be a number other than unity or converges to unity sufficiently fast. As a corollary, we compute a lower bound of the convergence rate, which blows up as the rotation-stratification ratio goes to unity.
期刊介绍:
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis (SIMA) features research articles of the highest quality employing innovative analytical techniques to treat problems in the natural sciences. Every paper has content that is primarily analytical and that employs mathematical methods in such areas as partial differential equations, the calculus of variations, functional analysis, approximation theory, harmonic or wavelet analysis, or dynamical systems. Additionally, every paper relates to a model for natural phenomena in such areas as fluid mechanics, materials science, quantum mechanics, biology, mathematical physics, or to the computational analysis of such phenomena.
Submission of a manuscript to a SIAM journal is representation by the author that the manuscript has not been published or submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere.
Typical papers for SIMA do not exceed 35 journal pages. Substantial deviations from this page limit require that the referees, editor, and editor-in-chief be convinced that the increased length is both required by the subject matter and justified by the quality of the paper.
