dc.description.abstract	The effects of inertia (involving a drag which is quadratic in the velocity) on convection in a fluid-saturated porous medium are considered. It is shown that the effect of quadratic drag is physically significant for natural convection, at realistic values of the Rayleigh number, in a thin layer of a medium whose overall Prandtl number is small. The qualitative effect of quadratic drag on the global stability of the conduction regime, and on bifurcation into the convection regime, is reported. Convection in an inclined slab of material is also discussed.	en
