Download or read book Hydrodynamic and Water Quality in Mediterranean Reservoirs written by Takkouk Saddek and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this work is to provide better understanding of the main physical processes and aquatic ecosystem behavior of Mediterranean Reservoirs caused by natural and artificial perturbations. This book enhances special emphasis of ecological response by combining hydrodynamic and water quality models to two reservoirs located in the region of Catalonia and used for water supply purposes. Investigators, Engineers and students of environmental sciences, limnology and hydraulic engineering might benefit from this small acquired experience in modeling of theses medium-sized reservoirs and subsequently getting a significant help to the water management authority in their decision making. Book, starting with an introduction, data analysis and field experiments, checking criteria for using the 1D hydrodynamic model for the two reservoirs, applying the DYRESM-CAEDYM to the Sau Reservoir, and finally trying to use the same models to another reservoir which is Boadella
Download or read book Greenhouse Gas Emissions Fluxes and Processes written by A. Tremblay and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-04-30 with total page 743 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time when an unquestionable link between anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases and climatic changes has finally been acknowledged and * widely documented through IPCC reports, the need for precise estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) production rates and emissions from natural as well as managed ecosystems has risen to a critical level. Future agreements between nations concerning the reduction of their GHG emissions will - pend upon precise estimates of the present level of these emissions in both natural and managed terrestrial and aquatic environments. From this viewpoint, the present volume should prove to a benchmark contribution because it provides very carefully assessed values for GHG emissions or exchanges between critical climatic zones in aquatic en- ronments and the atmosphere. It also provides unique information on the biases of different measurement methods that may account for some of the contradictory results that have been published recently in the literature on this subject. Not only has a large array of current measurement methods been tested concurrently here, but a few new approaches have also been developed, notably laser measurements of atmospheric CO concentration 2 gradients. Another highly useful feature of this book is the addition of - nitoring and process studies as well as modeling.
Download or read book Eddy Covariance written by Marc Aubinet and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-18 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly practical handbook is an exhaustive treatment of eddy covariance measurement that will be of keen interest to scientists who are not necessarily specialists in micrometeorology. The chapters cover measuring fluxes using eddy covariance technique, from the tower installation and system dimensioning to data collection, correction and analysis. With a state-of-the-art perspective, the authors examine the latest techniques and address the most up-to-date methods for data processing and quality control. The chapters provide answers to data treatment problems including data filtering, footprint analysis, data gap filling, uncertainty evaluation, and flux separation, among others. The authors cover the application of measurement techniques in different ecosystems such as forest, crops, grassland, wetland, lakes and rivers, and urban areas, highlighting peculiarities, specific practices and methods to be considered. The book also covers what to do when you have all your data, summarizing the objectives of a database as well as using case studies of the CarboEurope and FLUXNET databases to demonstrate the way they should be maintained and managed. Policies for data use, exchange and publication are also discussed and proposed. This one compendium is a valuable source of information on eddy covariance measurement that allows readers to make rational and relevant choices in positioning, dimensioning, installing and maintaining an eddy covariance site; collecting, treating, correcting and analyzing eddy covariance data; and scaling up eddy flux measurements to annual scale and evaluating their uncertainty.
Download or read book Computational Engineering Introduction to Numerical Methods written by Michael Schäfer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-19 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical simulation methods in all engineering disciplines gains more and more importance. The successful and efficient application of such tools requires certain basic knowledge about the underlying numerical techniques. The text gives a practice-oriented introduction in modern numerical methods as they typically are applied in mechanical, chemical, or civil engineering. Problems from heat transfer, structural mechanics, and fluid mechanics constitute a thematical focus of the text. For the basic understanding of the topic aspects of numerical mathematics, natural sciences, computer science, and the corresponding engineering area are simultaneously important. Usually, the necessary information is distributed in different textbooks from the individual disciplines. In the present text the subject matter is presented in a comprehensive multidisciplinary way, where aspects from the different fields are treated insofar as it is necessary for general understanding. Overarching aspects and important questions related to accuracy, efficiency, and cost effectiveness are discussed. The topics are presented in an introductory manner, such that besides basic mathematical standard knowledge in analysis and linear algebra no further prerequisites are necessary. The book is suitable either for self-study or as an accompanying textbook for corresponding lectures. It can be useful for students of engineering disciplines as well as for computational engineers in industrial practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kniha popisuje teorii různých prostorů funkcí a dává možnost funkcionálně analytickému přístupu k řešení diferenciálních rovnic. Je rozdělena do tří částí, z nichž první pojednává předběžně o funkcionální analýze, ovektorových, metrických, lineárních, Banachových a Hilbertových prostorech, operátorech apod. Druhá část pojednává o integrovatelných funkcích a o prostorech a integrálech různých autorů. V třetí části se popisují Sobolevovy aOrliczovy prostory, dále prostory anizotropní, Nikolského a Slobodeckého.
