  • How Nature Works

    the science of self-organized criticality

    by Per Bak ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    and acknowledgments Self-organized criticality is a new way of viewing nature. The basic picture is one where nature is perpetually out of balance, but organized in a poised state-the critical state-where anything can happen within well-defined statistical laws. The aim of the science of self-organized criticality is to yield insight into the fundamental question of why nature is complex, not ... Read more

  • Spatial Modeling in Natural Sciences and Engineering

    Software Development and Implementation

    by Jürgen Friedrich ...
    Series series Computer Science (R0)
    The author introduces the reader to the creation and implementation of space-related models by applying a learning-by-doing and problem-oriented approach. The required procedural skills are rarely taught at universities and many scientists and engineers struggle to transfer a model into a computer program. The purpose of this book is to fill this gap. It moves from simple to more complex ... Read more

  • Climate Change Modeling Methodology

    Selected Entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology

    Edited by Philip J. Rasch ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The Earth's average temperature has risen by 1.4°F over the past century, and computer models project that it will rise much more over the next hundred years, with significant impacts on weather, climate, and human society. Many climate scientists attribute these increases to the build up of greenhouse gases produced by the burning of fossil fuels and to the anthropogenic production of short-lived ... Read more
