- •
Numerical investigation of interaction of geostrophic and ageostrophic zonal flows.
- •
Reduction of equatorial heat flux leads to inverted geostrophic zonal flow system.
- •
Standard theoretical picture of zonal flow generation cannot explain these unexpected results.
- •
Confirmed by a broad numerical parameter study.
