Abstract

The paper presents, in a condensed form, the fundamentals of global atmospheric energetics that have a bearing on the linear theory of compensation of non-equilibrium states in the Earth's atmosphere. The author introduces a new coordinate system with the vertical coordinate φ*=Z*/T*, which suits global atmospheric energetice. The relation between the energetics of the atmospheric system as a whole and the „mean energetics level“ (MEL) is shown. Contrary to what has been assumed so far, it is proved that this level is neither an isopycnic level nor a physical surface, where ∂ϱ*/∂t=0 applies everywhere.
