大気と海洋の流体力学：基礎および大規模循環 第2版 Fundamentals and Large-Scale Circulation Author: Vallis, Geoffrey K. (University of Exeter) Publisher: Cambridge University Press ISBN: 9781107065505 Cover: HARDCOVER Date: 2017年06月 こちらの商品は学校・法人様向け（機関契約）のオンラインブック版がございます。 オンラインブックの価格、納期につきましては弊社営業員または当ECサイトよりお問い合わせください。  DESCRIPTION The atmosphere and ocean are two of the most important components of the climate system, and fluid dynamics is central to our understanding of both. This book provides a unified and comprehensive treatment of the field that blends classical results with modern interpretations. It takes the reader seamlessly from the basics to the frontiers of knowledge, from the equations of motion to modern theories of the general circulation of the atmosphere and ocean. These concepts are illustrated throughout the book with observations and numerical examples. As well as updating existing chapters, this full-color second edition includes new chapters on tropical dynamics, El Nino, the stratosphere and gravity waves. Supplementary resources are provided online, including figures from the book and problem sets, making this new edition an ideal resource for students in the atmospheric, oceanic and climate sciences, as well as in applied mathematics and engineering. *A major rewrite and expansion of the authoritative first edition, now illustrated with color graphics *Treats the atmosphere and ocean as a coherent whole, with geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD) integrated into a description of general circulation *Uses clear writing and straightforward explanations, with any jargon explained, appealing to a wide range of readers of varying expertise TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface Part I.
