Abstract
Tidal theory analysis and 2D numerical modeling of wave structure show the possibility of resonant Rossby waves excitation for zonal wavenum ber m = 1. The non-zonal component of ozone distribution and 27-days o scillations of solar UV radiation contribute in the source of excitati on. The model equations are the quasigeostrophic vorticity equation, t he energy conservation equation and the continuity equation. Model run s show that large-scale transient waves may be really generated in the middle atmosphere when atmospheric resonant characteristics do not va ry dramatically. So the energy of a weak perturbation in solar activit y may be accumulated in the Earth's atmosphere as Rossby wave motions. These waves look like barotropic motions and depend on zonal wind and characteristics of solar 27-days oscillations.
