(2+1)-dimensional coupled Boussinesq equations for Rossby waves in two-layer cylindrical fluid

In this paper,the existence and propagation characteristics of Rossby waves in a two-layer cylindrical fluid are studied.Firstly,based on the dimensionless baroclinic quasi-geostrophic vortex equations including exogenous and dissipative,we derive new(2+1)-dimensional coupled Boussinesq equations describing wave propagation in polar coordinates by employing a multiscale analysis and perturbation method.Then,the Lie symmetries and conservation laws of the coupled Boussinesq equations are analyzed.Subsequently,by using the(G’/G)-expansion method,the exact solutions of the(2+1)-dimensional coupled Boussinesq equations are obtained.Finally,the effects of coupling term coefficients on the propagation characteristics of Rossby waves are analyzed.
