The problem of the equilibrium shapes of rotating vortices in a stratified ocean, which is in a statically stable state, is considered within the framework of the model of an ideal incompressible fluid. An equilibrium shape is a surface on which the pressures in the vortex and in the ocean are equal

## Abstract We investigate the time evolution of the potential‐vorticity distribution in an axisymmetric hurricane‐like vortex using a numerical model based on a formulation by Schubert and Alworth. In particular, we compare the vortex response to an annular heating function with that in the analyt
## Abstract ## SUMMARY The main objective of this paper is to propose two vorticity–vector potential formulations of the Stokes problem in the half space of ℝ^3^. Weighted spaces are used for describing the behaviour at large distances. ## RÉSUMÉ On propose deux formulations de type vorticité–po
