Description
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics: Understanding Everything with Rotating Shallow Water Models This comprehensive textbook explains key notions and fundamental processes of geophysical fluid dynamics from the unifying viewpoint of the rotating shallow water model. Used for over a century, this model has been instrumental in conceptual understanding, approach development, numerical code testing, and more. The book combines introductory material on geophysical fluid dynamics with explanations of fundamentals, illustrations, problems, and an advanced treatise on principal dynamical phenomena, including recent approaches and applications. Mathematics and physics underlying these phenomena are also explained, along with demonstrations. The goal is to develop the reader's physical intuition and qualitative insights.
