Nonlinear Physical Oceanography
Springer 2007; US$ 99.99Applies the methodology of dynamical systems theory to investigate the physics of the global ocean circulation, such as the dynamics of the Gulf Stream separation and the El Nino/Southern Oscillation phenomenon. This work also deals with the numerical methods for applying bifurcation analysis to large dimensional dynamical systems. more...
Oceans
Infobase Publishing 2007; US$ 35.00Earth's seas play a tremendous role in the planet's systems: Ocean currents transfer water and heat around the globe. Offering photographs and illustrations, this work shows how protecting the oceans requires protecting the entire planet, and describes the importance of setting aside marine reserves to save vital ecosystems. more...
Ocean Waves Breaking and Marine Aerosol Fluxes
Springer 2007; US$ 149.99This book fills a gap in knowledge of breaking waves and their influence on the generation of marine fluxes from ocean surfaces. Based on published data as well as on the author's experience, the text explores in detail the relationship chain of breaking waves, whitecaps coverage, rate of wave energy dissipation, amount of aerosol fluxes rising... more...
Tsunami and Its Hazards in the Indian and Pacific Oceans
Springer 2007; US$ 69.99Tsunamis like the Indian Ocean tsunami caused by the Sumatra-Andaman earthquake in 2004 or the Chilean earthquake in the Pacific Ocean in 1960 motivate international collaborations for the development of tsunami warning systems. Since 1960 the Tsunami Commission, established by the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics, has been holding a biannual... more...
Tsunami and Nonlinear Waves
Springer 2007; US$ 139.99The need for tsunami research and analysis has grown dramatically following the devastating tsunami of December 2004, which affected Southern Asia. This book pursues a detailed theoretical and mathematical analysis of the fundamentals of tsunamis, especially the evolution and dynamics of tsunamis and other great waves. Of course, it includes specific... more...
Deep Convection and Deep Water Formation in the Oceans
Elsevier Science 1991; US$ 272.00This book contains articles presenting current knowledge about the formation and renewal of deep waters in the ocean. These articles were presented at an international workshop at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey in March 1990. It is the first book entirely devoted to the topic of deep water formation in which articles have been both selected... more...
Small-Scale Turbulence and Mixing in the Ocean
Elsevier Science 1988; US$ 272.00This volume contains the proceedings of the 19th International Liège Colloquium on Ocean Hydrodynamics, the programme of which focused on the relationships between small-scale mixing and large-scale features, transports and processes. The presentation of papers on various methods of parameterization of small-scale turbulent mixing for numerical ocean... more...
