Abundance of Exact Solutions of a Nonlinear Forced (2+1)-Dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov Equation for Rossby Waves

In this paper, an improved tan (phi/2) expansion method is used to solve the exact solution of the nonlinear forced (2 + 1)-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. Firstly, we analyse the research status of the improved tan (phi/2) expansion method. Then, exact solutions of the nonlinear forced (2 + 1)-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation are obtained by the perturbation expansion method and the multi-spatiotemporal scale method. It is shown that the improved tan (phi/2) expansion method can obtain more exact solutions, including exact periodic travelling wave solutions, exact solitary wave solutions, and singular kink travelling wave solutions. Finally, the three-dimensional figure and the corresponding plane figure of the corresponding solution are given by using MATLAB to illustrate the influence of external source, dimension variable y, and dispersion coefficient on the propagation of the Rossby wave.
