On présente ici une série de travaux dont le but est de décrire les flots géophysiques dans la zone équatoriale, en tenant compte de l’influence prédominante de la rotation de la terre. Pour cela, on procède par approximations successives, en calculant pour chaque modèle la réponse du fluide à la pénalisation par la force de Coriolis. La principale difficulté provient des variations spatiales de l’accélération de Coriolis : en particulier, comme elle s’annule à l’équateur, les oscillations rapides sont piégées dans une fine bande de latitudes.
We present here a series of works which aims at describing geophysical flows in the equatorial zone, taking into account the dominating influence of the earth rotation. We actually proceed by successive approximations computing for each model the response of the fluid to the strong Coriolis penalisation. The main difficulty is due to the spatial variations of the Coriolis acceleration : in particular, as it vanishes at the equator, fast oscillations are trapped in a thin strip of latitudes.
