本文评述了有关大气环流的一些早期观点。本文介绍了一个由三个常微分方程组成的大气环流模式。对于不同强度的轴对称和非对称热强迫,方程可能有一个或两个稳定的稳态解,一个或两个稳定的周期解,或不规则(非周期)解。已经应用于真实的大气的定性推理有时也可以应用于模型,并通过将结论与数值解进行比较来检查其合理性。讨论了不规则性对大气和大气科学的影响。DOI:10.1111/j.1600-0870.1984.tb00230.x
Some early ideas concerning the general circulation of the atmosphere are reviewed. A model of the general circulation, consisting of three ordinary differential equations, is introduced. For different intensities of the axially symmetric and asymmetric thermal forcing, the equations may possess one or two stable steady-state solutions, one or two stable periodic solutions, or irregular (aperiodic) solutions. Qualitative reasoning which has been applied to the real atmosphere may sometimes be applied to the model, and checked for soundness by comparing the conclusions with numerical solutions. The implications of irregularity for the atmosphere and for atmospheric science are discussed. DOI: 10.1111/j.1600-0870.1984.tb00230.x
