Abstract
Recent advances in the study of nonlinear atmospheric and climate dynamics in China (2003--2006) are briefly reviewed. Major achievements in the following eight areas are covered: nonlinear error dynamics and predictability; nonlinear analysis of observational data; eddy-forced envelope Rossby soliton theory; sensitivity and stability of the ocean's thermohaline circulation; nonlinear wave dynamics; nonlinear analysis on fluctuations in the atmospheric boundary layer; the basic structures of atmospheric motions; some applications of variational methods.
