Oscillatory convection in rotating spherical shells: low Prandtl number and non-slip boundary conditions

A five-degree model, which reproduces faithfully the sequence of bifurcations and the type of solutions found through numerical simulations of the three-dimensional Boussinesq thermal convection equations in rotating spherical shells with fixed azimuthal symmetry, is derived. A low Prandtl number fl...
