Nonlinear Instability of Phillips Model

We investigate the instability of two-layer Phillips model in this paper, which is a prototypical geophysical fluid model. Using the results of Guo and Strauss et al, we obtained linear instability implies nonlinear instability provided the linearized system has an exponentially growing solution.
