Description for Environmental Stratified Flows
Hardback. The dynamics of flows in density-stratified fluids are an important topic for scientific enquiry. This volume gives an account of stratified flows as they are relevant to the ocean and atmosphere, with a primary focus on meso-scale phenomena. It is suitable for researchers in the field of oceanography, and environmental fluid dynamics. Editor(s): Grimshaw, Roger. Series: Topics in Environmental Fluid Mechanics. Num Pages: 292 pages, biography. BIC Classification: RN; TGMF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 17. Weight in Grams: 597.
The dynamics of flows in density-stratified fluids has been and remains now an important topic for scientific enquiry. Such flows arise in many contexts, ranging from industrial settings to the oceanic and atmospheric environments. It is the latter topic which is the focus of this book. Both the ocean and atmosphere are characterised by the basic vertical density stratification, and this feature can affect the dynamics on all scales ranging from the micro-scale to the planetary scale. The aim of this book is to provide a “state-of-the-art” account of stratified flows as they are relevant to the ocean and atmosphere ... Read more
