An existence result for the steady rotating Prandtl equation

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider a steady, geophysical 2D fluid in a domain, and focus on its western boundary layer, which is formally governed by a variant of the Prandtl equation. By using the von Mises change of variables, we show that this equation is well-posed under the assumption that the trace of the interior stream function has large variations, and that the variations in the coastline profile are moderate.
