Summary

THEORETICAL PREDICTIONS WERE MADE BY MEANS OF A NUMERICAL FINITE-DIFFERENCE METHOD. THE DISTURBED PRIMARY-FLOW FIELDS ALONG WITH THE DISTURBANCE PATTERNS WERE EXAMINED BOTH FOR THE HORIZONTAL AND INCLINED FLOWS. THE INTERACTION BETWEEN VORTICES WAS RATHER SMALL IN THE HORIZONTAL FLOW, THE VELOCITY-PEAK BEING NEAR THE VORTEX CENTER. IN THE INCLINED FLOW, TWO NEIGHBORING VORTICES TENDED TO FORM A PAIR WHICH HAD A SINGLE VELOCITY PEAK AT THE UPWELLING-BOUNDARY OF THE VORTEX IN THE UPWARD FLOW, AND CONVERSELY AT THE DOWNWELLING-BOUNDARY IN THE DOWNWARD FLOW.
