It is an important and difficult inverse problem to construct variational principles from complex models directly, because their variational formulations are theoretical bases for many methods to solve or analyze the non-linear problems. At first, this paper extends two kinds of non-linear geophysical KdV equations in continuum mechanics to their fractional partners in fractal porous media or with irregular boundaries. Then, by designing skillfully, the trial-Lagrange functional, variational principles are successfully established for the non-linear geophysical KdV equation with Coriolis term, and the high-order extended KdV equation with fractal derivatives, respectively. Furthermore, the obtained variational principles are proved to be correct by minimizing the functionals with the calculus of variations.
