Abstract
The effect of Coriolis force on the onset of thermal convection in a shallow layer of viscous liquid is studied in the limit of rapid rotation of the layer. Existing results which apply when the fluid lies between free boundaries are extended to the case where the boundaries are rigid.Keywords
