A number of numerical experiments on dynamical initialization of geopotential and wind fields in the lower latitudes are carried out within the framework of a regional barotropic primitive equation (P .E.) model. In the earlier works of Kivganov and Mohanty 0979) an optimal procedure of dynamical initialization with consideration of an initial-value and boundary-value problem of a P .E. model in the lower latitudes is stated. In this paper with use of this initialization procedure and velocity field as input data some of the important properties of the dynamical initialization in the lower latitudes and the effectiveness of the integration of a P.E. model with the use of balanced data are demonstrated.
