Laboratory experiments have revealed substantial reorganization of the mean motion in enclosed uniformly rotating fluid when subjected to intense stirring. The potential importance of these effects is reviewed in relation to the earliest stages of tropical cyclone genesis. A laboratory experiment in which localized mixing simulates the kinematics of a tropical disturbance cluster indicates that turbulently induced recirculations can bring about significant and rapid vortical organization.
