Garhwal University, Srinagar) Dehradun – 248 001, Uttarakhand, India Received: September 20, 2008; Accepted: March 18, 2009 Abstract In the present paper, the theoretical investigation of the double-diffusive convection in a micropolar fluid layer heated and soluted from below saturating a porous medium is considered. For a flat fluid layer contained between two free boundaries, an exact solution is obtained. A linear stability analysis theory and normal mode analysis method have been used. For the case of stationary convection,
