Abstract
A shallow-water model is used to examine the motion of a barotropic vortex on an equatorial beta plane in the presence of a large-scale mountain range that represents the Sierra Madre of Mexico. The model is initialized with the analyzed large-scale winds of two Atlantic storms, Hurricane Gilbert (1988) and Tropical Storm Hermine (1980). The study is focused on understanding the motion of tropical cyclones in the western Gulf of Mexico.
