Stability of aligned magnetoatmospheric flow
Description
Using the stationary equilibrium energy principle a sufficient condition is obtained for the stability of a compressible stratified fluid with a non-uniform horizontal magnetic field, with an aligned shear flow. The condition is used to provide a simple generalization of a known result for a specific atmospheric model. (author)
