Abstract

In this paper, we shall obtain the symmetries of the mathematical model describing spontaneous relaxation of eastward jets into a meandering state and use these symmetries for constructing the conservation laws. The basic eastward jet is a spectral parameter of the model, which is in geostrophic equilibrium with the basic density structure and which guarantees the existence of nontrivial conservation laws.
