Atmospheric and Oceanic Fluid Dynamics
Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 79.00Graduate textbook on atmospheric and oceanic fluid dynamics for meteorology, atmospheric science and oceanography courses. more...
Discrete Inverse and State Estimation Problems
Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 64.00Addressing the problems of making inferences from noisy observations and imperfect theories, this book introduces many inference tools and practical applications. Starting with fundamental algebraic and statistical ideas, it is ideal for graduate students and researchers in oceanography, climate science, and geophysical fluid dynamics. more...
Environmental Fluid Mechanics
CRC Press 2012; US$ 129.95This book contains the written versions of invited lectures presented at the Gerhard H. Jirka Memorial Colloquium on Environmental Fluid Mechanics, held June 3-4, 2011, in Karlsruhe, Germany. Professor Jirka was widely known for his outstanding work in Environmental Fluid Mechanics, and 23 eminent world-leading experts in this field contributed to... more...
Fluid Mechanics of Environmental Interfaces
Taylor and Francis 2008; US$ 199.95An environmental interface is defined as a surface between two abiotic or biotic systems, in relative motion and exchanging mass, heat and momentum through biophysical and/or chemical processes. These processes fluctuate temporally and spatially. The book first treats exchange processes occurring at the interfaces between atmosphere and the surface... more...
Fluid Mechanics of Environmental Interfaces
CRC Press 2012; US$ 139.95Environmental Fluid Mechanics (EFM) studies the motion of air and water at several different scales, the fate and transport of species carried along by these fluids, and the interactions among those flows and geological, biological, and engineered systems. EFM emerged some decades ago as a response to the need for tools to study problems of flow and... more...
Introduction to Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
Elsevier Science 2011; US$ 94.95This book provides an introductory-level exploration of geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD), the principles governing air and water flows on large terrestrial scales. Physical principles are illustrated with the aid of the simplest existing models, and the computer methods are shown in juxtaposition with the equations to which they apply. It explores... more...
Lagrangian Transport in Geophysical Jets and Waves
Springer 2006; US$ 54.99Written by a specialist in geophysical fluid dynamics and an applied mathematician, this book provides an introduction to a set of methods for analysing Lagrangian motion in geophysical flows. It also examines elements and methods of Lagrangian transport analysis in time-dependent flows. It is aimed at graduates, research scientists, and others. more...
Lectures on Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
Oxford University Press 1998; US$ 79.99This text offers an introduction to several topics in theoretical geophysical fluid dynamics, including the theory of large-scale ocean circulation, geostrophic turbulence, and Hamiltonian fluid dynamics. Each chapter is self-contained and can therefore be studied in isolation. more...
Nonlinear Dynamics and Statistical Theories for Basic Geophysical Flows
Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 106.00Geophysical fluid dynamics illustrates the rich interplay between mathematical analysis, nonlinear dynamics, statistical theories, qualitative models and numerical simulations. This self-contained introduction will suit a multi-disciplinary audience ranging from beginning graduate students to senior researchers. It is the first book following this... more...
Small Scale Processes in Geophysical Fluid Flows
Elsevier Science 2000; US$ 141.95While ocean waves are the most visible example of oceanic mixing processes, this macroscale mixing process represents but one end of the spectrum of mixing processes operating in the ocean. At the scale of a typical phytoplanktoic diatom or larval fish inhabiting these seas, the most important mixing processes occur on the molecular scale - at the... more...
