ROSSBY VORTICES IN THE LAYER BETWEEN CONVECTION ZONE AND RADIATIVE INTERIOR

Abstract

A Rossby vortex was used to simulate the travelling of a large-scale magnetic structure across the equator. This process is reflected in the drift of the longitudinally averaged vertical component of the magnetic field and in the formation of distinct rotation periods of the nonaxisymmetric components in different latitude belts similar to the ones revealed from experimental data.
