    Abstract

    We give Taylor-Kovasznay solutions for two-dimensional motions in a layer of viscous fluid on a rotating globe in the beta-plane approximation. These solutions represent travelling-wave-type periodic wavetrains and solitary vortices which decay away in time due to viscous effects.
