    The authors prove existence of solutions of both the equatorial shallow water equations and the equatorial Boussinesq equations in physically relevant singular limit regions. They extend the present results to include the active nonlinear effects of moisture. Their approach provides a rigorous PDE analysis of both the equatorial shallow water equations and the equatorial primitive equations in other physically relevant singular limit regions. At the equation, the Coriolis force tends to zero so that the dynamics of multiple scale for the equatorial shallow water equations tends to singular limits of symmetric hyperbolic systems with fast variable coefficients. So this study is of special theoretical interest. This paper describes some new view points of many physically important geophysical fluid flows.
