文摘Based on the continuously stratified quasi-geostrophic vorticity equation. the present paper analyses the instabilityof three-dimensional shear waves.The cause that most shear waves occur on the shelfside of strong current near the west boundaries of the oceans is presented. The growth rate of small perturbations relies on the stratification charctters, and a maximum value of growth rate exists for certain stratification.
