摘要
It is mathematically and thoroughly proved in this paper that the nonlinearstochastic ocean-atmosphere oscillator model possesses a stable limit cycle; then the modelequations are transformed into the Fokker-Planck equation (FPE), and the evolution of ElNino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) from unstable state to stable state is studied from the point ofview of nonequilibrium system dynamics. The study results reveal that although the complex nonlinearocean-atmosphere oscillator model possesses multiequilibrium states, the real climatic systempossesses only a quasi-normal state and a strong ENSO cycle stable state. The first passage timebetween states is also given in this paper, and the theoretical computational results agree withobservational data.
