Quasi-Geostrophic Theory of Oceans and Atmosphere Topics in the Dynamics and Thermodynamics of the Fluid Earth /
Large scale flows are strong movements in the atmosphere and in the oceans, governed by the balance between Coriolis and pressure gradient forces (geostrophic equilibrium). This book describes the dynamics, mechanics and thermodynamics of these winds and currents. It is written for researchers, but...
