An eight-variable dynamical system is developed, representing a generalization of most previous low-order models of planetary wave behavior. As a special case a three component model, somewhat more general than a recent model of Lorenz and representing only thermal-monsoonal forcing (i.e., no mountains), is studied and shown to be capable of exhibiting a 'folded resonance' equilibrium portrait suggestive of that which seems to be required to account for the observed bimodality of the atmospheric long-wave amplitude. When forced by seasonal thermal variations the system can exhibit vacillatory fluctuation qualitatively similar to observations.
