Spontaneous Generated Convective Anticyclones in Low Latitude -- A Model for the Great Red Spot
Tao Cai, Kwing L. Chan, Kim-Chiu Chow
The Great Red Spot at about latitude of Jupiter has been observed for hundreds of years, yet the driving mechanism on the formation of this giant anticyclone still re…
Large-scale Vortices in Rapidly Rotating Rayleigh-Bénard Convection at Small Prandtl number
Tao Cai
One prominent feature in the atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn is the appearance of large-scale vortices. However, the sustaining mechanism of these large-scale vortices remains un…
Convectively coupled equatorial trapped waves in stars and planets
Tao Cai, Cong Yu, Xing Wei
In this paper, we have studied the convectively coupled equatorially trapped waves in rotating stars, with and without magnetic field. The equatorial trapped HD and MHD Poincaré, R…
Deep, Closely-Packed, Long-Lived Cyclones on Jupiter's Poles
Tao Cai, Kwing L. Chan, Hans G. Mayr
Juno Mission to Jupiter has found closely-packed cyclones at the planet's two poles. The observation that these cyclones coexist in very confined space, with outer rims almost touc…
Enhancement of wave transmissions in multiple radiative and convective zones
Tao Cai, Cong Yu, Xing Wei
In this paper, we study wave transmission in a rotating fluid with multiple alternating convectively stable and unstable layers. We have discussed wave transmissions in two differe…
