Models with a vanishing anisotropic viscosity in the vertical direction are of relevance for the study of turbulent flows in geophysics. This motivates us to study the two-dimensional Boussinesq system with horizontal viscosity in only one equation. In this paper, we focus on the global existence issue for possibly large initial data. We first examine the case where the Navier–Stokes equation with no vertical viscosity is coupled with a transport equation. Second, we consider a coupling between the classical two-dimensional incompressible Euler equation and a transport–diffusion equation with diffusion in the horizontal direction only. For both systems, we construct global weak solutions à la Leray and strong unique solutions for more regular data. Our results rest on the fact that the diffusion acts perpendicularly to the buoyancy force.

In this chapter we intend to investigate the stability of the Leray solutions constructed in the previous chapter. It is useful to start by analyzing the linearized version of the Navier–Stokes equations, so the first section of the chapter is devoted to the proof of the well-posedness of the time-dependent Stokes system. The study will be applied in Section 3.2 to the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations, and the more delicate case of three space dimensions will be dealt with in Sections 3.3–3.5.
