Description for Climate Modeling for Scientists and Engineers
Paperback. A guide to climate modelling and simulation, focussing on numerical methods for PDEs and algorithms for high-performance computing. Num Pages: 170 pages. BIC Classification: PBW; PBWH; PHVJ. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 255 x 177 x 6. Weight in Grams: 330.
Climate modeling and simulation teach us about past, present, and future conditions of life on Earth and help us understand observations about ecology and the atmosphere. Focusing on high-end modeling and simulation of earth's climate, this book presents PDEs used to model weather and climate, covering numerical methods for geophysical flows in more detail than other texts. It also discusses parallel algorithms and high-performance computing for weather and climate simulations, with supplemental lectures and MATLAB exercises on an accompanying website. This book is for graduate students in science and engineering. It is also useful for a range of computational science ... Read more

About John B. Drake
John B. Drake was a researcher and group leader at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory for thirty years and led the climate modeling efforts there from 1990 to 2010. Through collaborations with the National Center for Atmospheric Research and sister DOE national laboratories, Drake led the SciDAC projects that resulted in the Community Earth System Model (CESM1.0) released in 2010. ...
