Atmospheric Circulation Dynamics and Circulation Models Hardback
by Masaki Satoh
Part of the Springer Praxis Books series
Hardback
Description
This book describes the methods used to construct general circulation models of the atmosphere, and how such models perform in applications relating to the real climate and environmental systems.
The author describes the fundamental dynamics of the atmospheric circulation, modelling of the general circulation, and applications of GCMs. The book consits of three parts: - Part 1 summarizes the physical processes involved, including basic equations, waves and instabilities; - Part 2 covers atmospheric structures, including various types of one- and two-dimensional structures and circulations; - Part 3 describes the basic notions for construction of general circulation models of the atmosphere and their applications.
The text includes an appendix incorporating the basic data and mathematical formulae required to enable readers to construct GCMs for themselves.
