This note is concerned with a variant of the trajectory space approach ([3]
, [4], [16]) which applies to reaction-diffusion problems with slow diffusi
on and jump discontinuities in the source term. Such problems arise from Bu
dyko-type energy balance climate models, and typically the initial value pr
oblem for the resulting parabolic differential inclusion is not uniquely so
lvable. It will be shown that the shift-semigroup on a suitable trajectory
space, a complete subset of a Frechet space of continuous functions, posses
ses a global compact attractor.
