Abstract:   In this talk I will present some recent results concerning global regularity of certain geophysical models. This will include the three-dimensional primitive equations with various anisotropic viscosity and turbulence mixing diffusion, and certain tropical atmospheric models with moisture. Moreover, I will show that in the non-viscous (inviscid) case there is a one-parameter family of initial data for which the corresponding smooth solutions of the primitive equations develop finite-time singularities (blowup). The presentation is based on joint work with Chongsheng Cao, Aseel Farhat, Slim Ibrahim, Jinkai Li and Kenji Nakanishi.
