Abstract: We consider the 2d quasigeostrophic equation on the -plane for the stream function psi, with dissipation and a random force: (*)qquad (-Delta +K)psi_t - ho J(psi, Deltapsi) -�etapsi_x= langle ext{random force} angle -kappaDelta^2psi +Deltapsi, where psi=psi(t,x,y),xinmathbbR/2piLmathbbZ,yinmathbbR/2pimathbbZ. For typical values of the horizontal period L we prove that the law of the action-vector of a solution for (*) (formed by the halves of the squared norms of its complex Fourier coefficients) converges, as , to the law of an action-vector for solution of an auxiliary effective equation, and the stationary distribution of the action-vector for solutions of (*) converges to that of the effective equation. Moreover, this convergence is uniform in kappain(0,1]. The effective equation is an infinite system of stochastic equations which splits into invariant subsystems of complex dimension le3; each of these subsystems is an integrable hamiltonian system, coupled with a Langevin thermostat. Under the iterated limits and we get similar systems. In particular, none of the three limiting systems exhibits the energy cascade to high frequencies.
