The main objective of this article is to study dynamic transitions and stability for rotating incompressible flows, governed by the rotating Boussinesq equations. It is proved that there are only two types of transitions, Type-I (continuous) and Type-II (jump) transitions, as the Rayleigh number crosses the first real or complex eigenvalues. Specific criteria are given to determine the type of transitions as well.
Keywords: dynamic transition theory, geophysical fluid dynamics, jump transition, periodic solutions., continuous transition, singularity separation, Rotating Boussinesq equations.
