abstract = "Scale interactions between a variety of motions in the atmosphere
and ocean have many theoretical and practical implications from
predictability at the weather scales to reliability at the slow
seasonal and climate scales. Two classes of wavy motions are
prominent at the hydrostatic limit, for instance: the fast
inertia-gravity waves and the slow Rossby waves. Although only
Rossby waves are believed to be of direct meteorological
significance, neglecting the fast oscillations may corrupt
numerical integrations leading to unrealistic results and
eventually to a complete model crash. Reliability of long seasonal
and climate scales depends upon a proper representation of, at
least, the statistics of the weather scale phenomena under given
boundary conditions. The predictability of the weather scale
phenomena, on the other hand, depends on the proper evolution of
the system from a given initial condition. It has long been shown
that a balance between stringent and permissive control of the
high-frequency oscillations can allow improvements to weather
forecasting. Behind these concepts are the ways by which Rossby
waves can interact, horizontally and vertically, with
high-frequency oscillations, or with other slow frequency
oscillations and even with topography. Thus, in the present work
we make a review of Rossby wave theory, considering its generation
mechanisms and their interactions, including a brief discussion of
some applications for the atmosphere.",
