| Abstract: | The paper is devoted to studying the mechanisms of formation of cyclones in the Earth’s atmosphere with the help of numerical
modeling using the complete system of gas-dynamic equations. The results of modeling have shown that cyclones can appear in
horizontal stratified shear flows of warm and wet air masses with horizontal direction of gradients of the wind velocity components
as a result of small disturbances of pressure which can be produced by Rossby waves. |
