This paper is devoted to the study of the long wave approximation for water waves under the influence of the gravity and a Coriolis forcing. We start by deriving a generalization of the Boussinesq equations in 1D (in space) and we rigorously justify them as an asymptotic model of the water waves equations. These new Boussinesq equations are not the classical Boussinesq equations. A new term due to the vorticity and the Coriolis forcing appears that can not be neglected. Then, we study the Boussinesq regime and we derive and fully justify different asymptotic models when the bottom is flat : a linear equation linked to the Klein-Gordon equation admitting the so-called Poincaré waves; the Ostrovsky equation, which is a generalization of the KdV equation in presence of a Coriolis forcing, when the rotation is weak; and finally the KdV equation when the rotation is very weak. Therefore, this work provides the first mathematical justification of the Ostrovsky equation. Finally, we derive a generalization of the Green-Naghdi equations in 1D in space for small topography variations and we show that this model is consistent with the water waves equations.< Leer menos
