Abstract

One of the main characteristics of the climatic system is the existence of numerous feedback and jump phenomena. It is suggested that a discontinuous formulation based on Boolean logic can be fruitfully used to analyse this behaviour. The approach is first applied to simple examples, and the logical predictions are compared with the results of the more familiar continuous formalism. The qualitative insights that such an analysis can add are then illustrated on more complex situations.

Boolean networks can be used as simple but general models for complex self-organizing systems. The freedom to choose different rules and structures of interactions makes this model applicable to a wide variety of complex phenomena.

A Boolean delay equation (BDE) model is presented for the interdecadal Arctic and Greenland Sea climate cycle recently proposed by Mysak, Manak and Marsden. It is shown that 15-to 20-year oscillations can occur in the model for a variety of time delays in the BDEs. However, both the period and struc
