Download or read book Introduction to Physical Oceanography written by Robert H. Stewart and published by Orange Grove Text Plus. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for college juniors and seniors and new graduate students in meteorology, ocean engineering, and oceanography. It begins with a brief overview of what is known about the ocean. This is followed by a description of the ocean basins, for the shape of the seas influences the physical processes in the water. Next, students will study the external forces, wind and heat, acting on the ocean, and the ocean's response. It also includes the equations describing dynamic response of the ocean. For example, the equations of motion, the influence of earth's rotation, and viscosity. Finally, students consider some particular examples: the deep circulation, the equatorial ocean and El NiE no, and the circulation of particular areas of the ocean. Contents: 1) A Voyage of Discovery. 2) The Historical Setting. 3) The Physical Setting. 4) Atmospheric Influences. 5) The Oceanic Heat Budget. 6) Temperature, Salinity and Density. 7) The Equations of Motion. 8) Equations of Motion with Viscosity. 9) Response of the Upper Ocean to Winds. 10) Geostrophic Currents. 11) Wind Driven Ocean Circulation. 12) Vorticity in the Ocean. 13) Deep Circulation in the Ocean. 14) Equatorial Processes. 15) Numerical Models. 16) Ocean Waves. 17) Coastal Processes and Tides."

Download or read book Meteorology and Oceanography written by Nilofar Dias and published by Discovery Publishing House (India). This book was released on 2024-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oceanographers and marine meteorologists work together to study the impact of oceans on the climate and the long-term effects of climate change. Marine meteorologists gather data from various sources such as weather stations, satellites, and observation vessels to understand the complex relationship between the ocean and the atmosphere. This interaction involves the exchange of gases, water, particles, momentum, and energy at the air-sea interface, which influences the biological, chemical, and physical processes in the ocean and ultimately affects the water cycle, weather patterns, and climate.To enhance our understanding of the ocean-atmosphere interactions and their influence on climate at regional and global scales, a comprehensive book has been written. The primary objective of this book is to advance knowledge by exploring the mechanisms involving the physics, chemistry, and biology of the ocean through observational and modeling studies. By studying these processes, researchers can gain insights into how the ocean influences climate on a long-term basis.The book also serves as an introduction to numerical modeling of the ocean and the atmosphere. It is designed to be a valuable resource for students in meteorology and oceanography who possess a background in mathematics and physics. The focus of the book is on numerical schemes, which are mathematical methods used to solve the equations commonly employed in oceanography and meteorology. These schemes are crucial for simulating and predicting the behavior of the ocean and the atmosphere.
Download or read book Coastal Meteorology written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost half the U.S. population lives along the coast. In another 20 years this population is expected to more than double in size. The unique weather and climate of the coastal zone, circulating pollutants, altering storms, changing temperature, and moving coastal currents affect air pollution and disaster preparedness, ocean pollution, and safeguarding near-shore ecosystems. Activities in commerce, industry, transportation, freshwater supply, safety, recreation, and national defense also are affected. The research community engaged in studies of coastal meteorology in recent years has made significant advancements in describing and predicting atmospheric properties along coasts. Coastal Meteorology reviews this progress and recommends research that would increase the value and application of what is known today.
