The existence of such long periodic oscillations in a rotating circular basin with a parabolic depth profile was pointed out by Poincaré in 1910, and the first explicit solution for these topographic waves (also called second c

In section 5.5 solutions obtained with analytical and numerical finite difference techniques (Gratton, 1983, Gratton & LeBlond, 1986, B?uerle, 1986) will be investigated. Finally section 5

In special cases these models allowed satisfactory interpretation of long-periodic phenomena i

As mentioned in the preface, we claim to have achieved a considerable advancement in the understanding of these waves. In particular, it was demonstrated that, besides the free travelling waves, the topographic wave equation admits bound states. These states consist of wave activity wh
