An Overview of the Dynamic Framework in Earth-System Model and Its Well-Posedness

The well-posedness of the dynamic framework in earth-system model (ESM for short) is a common issue in earth sciences and mathematics. In this paper, the authors first introduce the research history and fundamental roles of the well-posedness of the dynamic framework in the ESM, emphasizing the three core components of ESM, i.e., the atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM for short), land-surface model (LSM for short) and oceanic general circulation model (OGCM for short) and their couplings. Then, some research advances made by their own research group are outlined. Finally, future research prospects are discussed.
