  • Quasi-Geostrophic Theory of Oceans and Atmosphere

    Topics in the Dynamics and Thermodynamics of the Fluid Earth

    de Fabio Cavallini, Fulvio Crisciani ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Large-scale winds and currents tend to balance Coriolis and pressure gradient forces. The time evolution of these winds and currents is the subject of the quasi-geostrophic theory.Chapter 1 presents concepts and equations of classical inertial fluid mechanics.Chapter 2 deals with the equations of thermodynamics that close the governing equations of the fluids. Then, the motion is reformulated in a ... Leer más

  • Climate and the Oceans

    de Geoffrey K. Vallis ...
    Series series Princeton Primers in Climate
    The oceans exert a vital moderating influence on the Earth's climate system. They provide inertia to the global climate, essentially acting as the pacemaker of climate variability and change, and they provide heat to high latitudes, keeping them habitable. Climate and the Oceans offers a short, self-contained introduction to the subject. This illustrated primer begins by briefly describing the ... Leer más

  • Earth System Science

    A Very Short Introduction

    de Tim Lenton ...
    Series series Very Short Introductions
    When humanity first glimpsed planet Earth from space, the unity of the system that supports humankind entered the popular consciousness. The concept of the Earth's atmosphere, biosphere, oceans, soil, and rocks operating as a closely interacting system has rapidly gained ground in science. This new field, involving geographers, geologists, biologists, oceanographers, and atmospheric physicists, is ... Leer más

  • Ocean Biogeochemistry

    The Role of the Ocean Carbon Cycle in Global Change

    Edición de Michael J.R. Fasham ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Oceans account for 50% of the anthropogenic CO2 released into the atmosphere. During the past 15 years an international programme, the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), has been studying the ocean carbon cycle to quantify and model the biological and physical processes whereby CO2 is pumped from the ocean's surface to the depths of the ocean, where it can remain for hundreds of years. This ... Leer más

  • Ocean Dynamics and the Carbon Cycle

    Principles and Mechanisms

    de Michael J. Follows, Richard G. Williams ...
    This textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students presents a multidisciplinary approach to understanding ocean circulation and how it drives and controls marine biogeochemistry and biological productivity at a global scale. Background chapters on ocean physics, chemistry and biology provide students with the tools to examine the range of large-scale physical and dynamic phenomena that ... Leer más

  • Numerical Models of Oceans and Oceanic Processes

    de Lakshmi H. Kantha, Carol Anne Clayson ...
    Series Libro 66 - International Geophysics
    Oceans play a pivotal role in our weather and climate. Ocean-borne commerce is vital to our increasingly close-knit global community. Yet we do not fully understand the intricate details of how they function, how they interact with the atmosphere, and what the limits are to their biological productivity and their tolerance to wastes. While satellites are helping us to fill in the gaps, numerical ... Leer más

  • Small Scale Processes in Geophysical Fluid Flows

    de Lakshmi H. Kantha, Carol Anne Clayson ...
    Series Libro 67 - International Geophysics
    While 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 scale of turbulence. Physical-biological ... Leer más

  • The Near-Surface Layer of the Ocean

    Structure, Dynamics and Applications

    de Alexander Soloviev, Roger Lukas ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The rationale for publishing a second edition of this monograph is that this area of research continues to show remarkable advancement. The new generation of synthetic aperture radar satellites has provided unprecedented spatial resolution of sea surface features. In addition, satellites to measure sea surface salinity have been launched. Computational fluid dynamics models open new opportunities ... Leer más

  • Fronts, Waves and Vortices in Geophysical Flows

    Edición de Jan-Bert Flor ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Most well known structures in planetary atmospheres and the Earth’s oceans are jets or fronts interacting with vortices on a wide range of scales. The transition from one state to another, such as in unbalanced or adjustment flows, involves the generation of waves as well as the interaction of coherent structures with these waves.This book presents a fluid mechanics perspective to the dynamics of ...

  • Dynamics of Vortex Structures in a Stratified Rotating Fluid

    de Jacques Verron, Mikhail A. Sokolovskiy ...
    Series Libro 47 - Atmospheric and Oceanographic Sciences Library
    This book presents an extensive analysis of the dynamics of discrete and distributed baroclinic vortices in a multi-layer fluid that characterizes the main features of the large and mesoscales dynamics of the atmosphere and the ocean. It widely covers the case of hetonic situations as well as the case of intrathermocline vortices that are familiar in oceanographic and of recognized importance for ... Leer más

  • General Circulation Model Development

    Past, Present, and Future

    de David A. Randall ...
    Series Libro 70 - International Geophysics
    General Circulation Models (GCMs) are rapidly assuming widespread use as powerful tools for predicting global events on time scales of months to decades, such as the onset of EL Nino, monsoons, soil moisture saturation indices, global warming estimates, and even snowfall predictions. While GCMs have been praised for helping to foretell the current El Nino and its impact on droughts in Indonesia, ... Leer más
