The midterm (on Wednesday the 27th) will cover up to Rossby wave reflection (sec. 3.4). Let me know if you have any questions.
Lise will have a group session on Monday (11/10) to discuss problem set 2. Then she'll have a lecture (on group velocity and Rossby wave reflection) on Thursday (14/10). No class the following Monday (18/10).
Let's have the mid-terms on Wednesday, October 27th. Let me know if that is a problem for you.
In problem 1, start with equation 63 in the notes and use z-coordinates. (63) follows from Kelvin's theorem, using the Boussinesq approximation.
Problem set 2 is here. Enjoy! If you have any questions, just ask.
In problem 3, you can neglect the Coriolis term in the vertical momentum equation.
Next Monday (Sept. 6) we'll meet from 9:15-11 (room is reserved).
