Advances in Nonlinear Atmospheric Dynamics
非线性大气动力学的进展

Some advances in nonlinear atmospheric dynamics in the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) since 1949 have been surveyed. Especially, some achieve-ments and latest progresses in nonlinear adjustment process, nonlinear stability and instability, global analysis, predictability, low-order method and multiple equilibria dynamics, nonlinear wave, interac-tions between disturbances and zonai flow nonlinear blocking dynamics, meso- and micro-scale nonlinear dynamics, and etc. other institutes are mainly summarized. The related advances in these fields men-tioned above from other institutes in China are also partly introduced.
