  • Current Trends in the Representation of Physical Processes in Weather and Climate Models

    Modifié par David A. Randall, J. Srinivasan, Ravi S. Nanjundiah, Parthasarathi Mukhopadhyay ...
    Collections series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book focuses on the development of physical parameterization over the last 2 to 3 decades and provides a roadmap for its future development. It covers important physical processes: convection, clouds, radiation, land-surface, and the orographic effect. The improvement of numerical models for predicting weather and climate at a variety of places and times has progressed globally. However, ... En savoir plus

  • General Circulation Model Development

    Past, Present, and Future

    par David A. Randall ...
    Collections Livre 70 - International Geophysics
    General Circulation Models (GCMs) are rapidly assuming widespread use as powerful tools for predicting global events on time scales of months to decades, such as the onset of EL Nino, monsoons, soil moisture saturation indices, global warming estimates, and even snowfall predictions. While GCMs have been praised for helping to foretell the current El Nino and its impact on droughts in Indonesia, ... En savoir plus

  • Numerical Models of Oceans and Oceanic Processes

    par Lakshmi H. Kantha, Carol Anne Clayson ...
    Collections Livre 66 - International Geophysics
    Oceans play a pivotal role in our weather and climate. Ocean-borne commerce is vital to our increasingly close-knit global community. Yet we do not fully understand the intricate details of how they function, how they interact with the atmosphere, and what the limits are to their biological productivity and their tolerance to wastes. While satellites are helping us to fill in the gaps, numerical ... En savoir plus

  • Small Scale Processes in Geophysical Fluid Flows

    par Lakshmi H. Kantha, Carol Anne Clayson ...
    Collections Livre 67 - International Geophysics
    While ocean waves are the most visible example of oceanic mixing processes, this macroscale mixing process represents but one end of the spectrum of mixing processes operating in the ocean. At the scale of a typical phytoplanktoic diatom or larval fish inhabiting these seas, the most important mixing processes occur on the molecular scale - at the scale of turbulence. Physical-biological ... En savoir plus

  • Thermal Signatures of Heat Transfer Processes in the Earth’s Crust

    Traduit par C. Newcomb ...
    par Christoph Clauser ...
    Collections Livre 85 - Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences
    This book deals with the signatures left by geodynamic proceses in the temperature field of the Earth's crust. First, it introduces briefly the established, indirect methods for interpreting the present termperature field and methods for reconstructing the thermal fields of the geological past. Then the spatial and temporal scales that are relevant for heat transport processes are described. This ... En savoir plus

  • Physical Soil Mechanics

    par Gerd Gudehus ...
    Collections series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Soil is matter in its own right. Its nature can be captured by means of monotonous, cyclic and strange attractors. Thus material properties are defined by the asymptotic response of sand- and clay-like samples to imposed deformations and stresses. This serves to validate and calibrate elastoplastic and hypoplastic relations with comparative plots. Extensions capture thermal and seismic activations ... En savoir plus

  • Ocean Biogeochemistry

    The Role of the Ocean Carbon Cycle in Global Change

    Modifié par Michael J.R. Fasham ...
    Collections series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Oceans account for 50% of the anthropogenic CO2 released into the atmosphere. During the past 15 years an international programme, the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), has been studying the ocean carbon cycle to quantify and model the biological and physical processes whereby CO2 is pumped from the ocean's surface to the depths of the ocean, where it can remain for hundreds of years. This ... En savoir plus

  • The Nordic Seas

    Modifié par Burton G. Hurdle ...
    Collections series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    " ... as soon as one has traversed the greater part of the wild sea, one comes upon such a huge quantity of ice that nowhere in the whole world has the like been known." "This ice is of a wonderful nature. It lies at times quite still, as one would expect, with openings or large fjords in it; but sometimes its movement is so strong and rapid as to equal that of a ship running before the wind, and ...
