Title Resonant interaction of Rossby waves in two-dimensional flow on a plane

An incompressible two-dimensional flow on a β plane is considered. Rossby waves are generally expected to dominate the β plane dynamics, and here in this paper we prove a mathematically rigorous theorem that at a high β, the flow dynamics are governed exclusively by the resonant interactions of Rossby waves.
