Hydrodynamic α-effect in a rotating stratified moist atmosphere driven by small-scale non-helical force
Abstract
In this paper we have studied the large-scale instability in a rotating stratified moist atmosphere with a small-scale turbulence. The axis of rotation of the medium is deviated from the vertical direction. The turbulence is excited by an external small-scale force with zero helicity and a low Reynolds number. The nonlinear equations of a vortex dynamo were obtained on the basis of the method of multiscale asymptotic expansions. The linear instability and stationary nonlinear modes were studied. The solutions in a form of localized vortex structures were obtained.
