Schematics of the tidal wave-vortex interaction. Left panel: schematic of the interaction between a tidal inertial wave and a single convective Taylor column in the f -plane. We introduce the cylindrical coordinates (r, θ, z). Right panel: schematic of a meridian cut of a planet or star showing propagation of a tidal inertial wave (blue lines) in a convective envelope and its interaction with a single Taylor column.
