Abstract
An asymmetry of jet profiles is found between eastward and westward jets which appear spontaneously in two-dimensional β-plane decaying turbulence. Westward jets are narrower and more intense than eastward jets. A theory for this asymmetrization is developed using Rossby wave propagation theory. The theoretical explanation also makes clear the maintenance mechanism of the zonal jets.
