The aim of this paper is to describe the structure of global attractors for infinite-dimensional non-autonomous dynamical systems with recurrent coefficients. We consider a special class of this type of systems (the so--called weak convergent systems). We study this problem in the framework of general non-autonomous dynamical systems (cocycles). In particular, we apply the general results obtained in our previous paper [6] to study the almost periodic (almost automorphic, recurrent, pseudo recurrent) and asymptotically almost periodic (asymptotically almost automorphic, asymptotically recurrent, asymptotically pseudo recurrent) solutions of different classes of differential equations (functional-differential equations, evolution equation with monotone operator, semi-linear parabolic equations).
