Abstract
In this paper, we prove the stability threshold of for 2D Boussinesq equations around the Couette flow in with Richardson number and different viscosity and thermal diffusivity . More precisely, if , , , then the asymptotic stability holds. This stability threshold is consistent with the optimal stability threshold for the 2D Navier-Stokes equations in Sobolev space. And in the sense of inviscid damping effect, the regularity assumption of the initial data should be sharp.
