 Equatorial shallow-water dispersion relation

With $c=\sqrt{gH}$, beta plane parameter $\beta >0$, and Hermite polynomial index $n\ge 0$, meridional trapping of the nonzero meridional-velocity branch requiresIts meridional velocity is proportional to $H_n(Y)e^{-Y^2/2}$, with $Y=y\sqrt{\beta /c}$. Exceptional roots with ${\omega }^2=c^2{k}^2$ must be checked in the original equations, since eliminating velocity and height divides by this factor.
