Higher Order Lamb-Chaplygin Vortices, Chaplygin Antisymmetric Vortices, and Atmospheric Blocking
Gerald E. Marsh
Abstrak
The equations describing the two-dimensional vortices first described by Chaplygin in 1899 and 1903 are shown to have solutions of higher order that differ from a simple dipole. It is also shown that for these higher-order vortices a very small asymmetry dramatically changes the topology of the stream function. These vortices could be important for understanding the phenomenon of atmospheric blocking.
