«When the physical model of wave - motion in a material medium had to be abandoned in physics», writes Mary Hesse, «it left its traces in the kind of mathematics which was used, for this was still a mathematical language derived from the wave equations of fluid motion, and so, for the mathematician, it carried some of the imaginative associations of the original physical picture.»

He was interested primarily in simplicity and coherence — in particular, the symmetry of the forms of the equations for electrical and magnetic fields in motion.38 The variability of individual weighting among various criteria, which Kuhn describes, is also most noticeable in the early stages of a new theory.

While many basic aspects of physics can be included (conservation of mass, energy etc.), many need to be approximated for reasons of efficiency or resolutions (i.e. the equations of motion need estimates of sub-gridscale turbulent effects, radiative transfer codes approximate the line - by - line calculations using band averaging), and still others are only known empirically (the formula for how fast clouds turn to rain for instance).

The problem here is that the «forcings» are in fact some other inherent variables of the very same climate - bearing system, but there is no clear separation of time scales that allow for any sort of coherent theories like «averaging of fast motion» that results in Landau - Ginzburg - type equations for «slow envelopes».
