We report experimental and theoretical results on how a fluid (homogeneous or continuously stratified) is spun up in a closed, semicircular cylinder. Experiments were performed for Rossby numbers, 0.2 and 1 (the latter corresponding to the limiting c... Read More about Spin-up in a semicircular cylinder.
