This paper is devoted to the existence of pullback attractors for the process $\{U(t,\tau)\}_{t\geq \tau}$ associated with the three dimensional non-autonomous planetary geostrophic viscous equations of large-scale ocean circulation. We first prove the existence of pullback absorbing sets in $H$ and $V$ for the process $\{U(t,\tau)\}_{t\geq \tau}$ associated with (1)-(8), and then we prove the existence of a pullback attractor in $H$ by the Sobolev compactness embedding theorem. Finally, we obtain the existence of a pullback attractor in $V$ for the process $\{U(t,\tau)\}_{t\geq \tau}$ associated with (1)-(8) by verifying the pullback $\mathcal{D}$ condition $(PDC)$.
Keywords: planetary geostrophic viscous equations, Sobolev compactness embedding theory, pullback $\mathcal{D}$ condition $(PDC)$., Pullback attractor.
