Description for Physics of Lakes
Hardback. This book describes methods of investigation for processes taking place in real lakes, as components of the geophysical environment. Covers numerical modeling, observation and experimental procedures, and the dynamics of lake water as a particle-laden fluid. Series: Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics. Num Pages: 671 pages, 167 black & white illustrations, 70 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHVG; RBK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 38. Weight in Grams: 1166.
The ongoing thread in this volume of Physics of Lakes is the presentation of different methods of investigation for processes taking place in real lakes with a view to understanding lakes as components of the geophysical environment. It is divided into three parts. Part I is devoted to numerical modeling techniques and demonstrates that (i) wind-induced currents in depth-integrated models can only adequately predict current fields for extremely shallow lakes, and (ii) that classical multi-layered simulation models can only adequately reproduce current and temperature distributions when the lake is directly subjected to wind, but not the post-wind oscillating response.
