Popis: The physical features of the equatorial envelope Rossby waves including with complete Coriolis force and dissipation are investigated analytically. Staring with a potential vorticity equation, the wave amplitude evolution of equatorial envelope Rossby waves is described as a nonlinear Schrodinger equation by employing multiple scale analysis and perturbation expansions. The equation is more suitable for describing envelope Rossby solitary waves when the horizontal component of Coriolis force is stronger near the equator. Then, based on the Jacobi elliptic function expansion method and trial function method, the classical Rossby solitary wave solution and the corresponding stream function of the envelope Rossby solitary waves are obtained, respectively. With the help of these solutions, the effect of dissipation and the horizontal component of Coriolis parameter are discussed in detail by graphical presentations. The results reveal the effect of the horizontal component of Coriolis force and dissipation on the classical Rossby solitary waves.
