contents We analyze the nonlinear inertial instability of Couette flow under Coriolis forcing in \(\mathbb{R}^{3}\). For the Coriolis coefficient \(f \in (0,1)\), we show that the non-normal operator associated with the linearized system admits only continuous spectrum. Hence, there are no exponentially growing eigenfunctions for the linearized system. Instead, we construct unstable solutions in the form of pseudo-eigenfunctions that exhibit non-ideal spectral properties. Then through a bootstrap argument and resolving the challenges posed by the non-ideal spectral behavior of pseudo-eigenfunctions, we establish the velocity instability of Couette flow in the Hadamard sense for $ f \in \Big(\frac{2}{17} \left(5-2 \sqrt{2}\right), \frac{2}{17} \left(5 + 2 \sqrt{2}\right) \Big)$.
