摘      要：In this paper, starting with the equations describing the atmospheric motion and by arelatively simple method, we find that, nearby the mechanical equilibrium point, all thefinite amplitude nonlinear inertia waves, internal gravity waves and Rossby waves in thedispersive atmosphere satisfy the KdV (Korteweg-de Vries) equation, its solution being thecnoidal waves and solitary waves. For the finite amplitude Rossby waves, we find the newdispersive relation which is different from the Rossby formula and contains the amplitudeparameter. It is shown that the larger the amplitude and width, the faster are the wavesfor the finite amplitude inertia waves and internal gravity waves, and the slower are thewaves for the Rossby solitary waves, to which perhaps the polar vortex and the blocking orcut-off systems belong. This treatise gives the nonlinear waves a new way and inspires usto study the nonlinear adjustment process and evolution process and the turbulence structure.
