Abstract

The present article is the third part of a series of papers devoted to the shallow water wave modelling. In this part, we investigate the derivation of some long wave models on a deformed sphere. We propose first a suitable for our purposes formulation of the full Euler equations on a sphere. Then, by applying the depth-averaging procedure we derive first a new fully nonlinear weakly dispersive base model. After this step, we show how to obtain some weakly nonlinear models on the sphere in the so-called Boussinesq regime. We have to say that the proposed base model contains an additional velocity variable which has to be specified by a closure relation. Physically, it represents a dispersive correction to the velocity vector. So, the main outcome of our article should be rather considered as a whole family of long wave models.
