Abstract: In this paper we present an explicit construction of a continuum family of smooth pairwise nonisomorphic foliations of codimension one on a standard three-dimensional sphere, each of which has a countable set of compact attractors which are leaves diffeomorphic to a torus. As it was proved by S.P.Novikov, every smooth foliation of codimension one on a standard three-dimensional sphere contains a Reeb component. Changing this foliation only in the Reeb component by the method presented, we get a continuum family of smooth pairwise nonisomorphic foliations containing a countable set of compact attractor leaves diffeomorphic to a torus which coincides with the original foliation outside this Reeb component.

Keywords: Reeb foliation, Reeb component, attractor of a foliation, category of foliations.
