The classical Eady solution

A hydrostatic configuration to demonstrate the classical Eady (1949) solution.

A narrow channel on an f-plane with prescribed stratification and vertically sheared background zonal flow. The temperature variable of the model is in this case a temperature perturbation, the effect of the background stratification on the perturbation temperature is implemented in the configuration routine set_forcing.
