  In this paper, we use the variational approach to investigate recurrent
properties of solutions for stochastic partial differential equations, which is
in contrast to the previous semigroup framework. Consider stochastic
differential equations with monotone coefficients. Firstly, we establish the
continuous dependence on initial values and coefficients for solutions.
Secondly, we prove the existence of recurrent solutions, which include
periodic, almost periodic and almost automorphic solutions. Then we show that
these recurrent solutions are globally asymptotically stable in square-mean
sense. Finally, for illustration of our results we give two applications, i.e.
stochastic reaction diffusion equations and stochastic porous media equations.
