Abstract

We consider incompressible, inviscid stratified shear flows in \(\beta\)-plane. We obtained a bounded and unbounded instability regions which depends on various parameters, and obtained a criterion for stability. Also, we obtained an upper bound for the growth rate, amplification factor of an unstable mode.
