Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treatise on Geophysics: Mantle Dynamics, Volume 7 aims to provide both a classical and state-of-the-art introduction to the methods and science of mantle dynamics, as well as survey leading order problems (both solved and unsolved) and current understanding of how the mantle works. It is organized around two themes: (1) how is mantle convection studied; and (2) what do we understand about mantle dynamics to date. The first four chapters are thus concerned with pedagogical reviews of the physics of mantle convection; laboratory studies of the fluid dynamics of convection relevant to the mantle; theoretical analysis of mantle dynamics; and numerical analysis and methods of mantle convection. The subsequent chapters concentrate on leading issues of mantle convection itself, which include the energy budget of the mantle; the upper mantle and lithosphere in and near the spreading center (mid-ocean ridge) environment; the dynamics of subducting slabs; hot spots, melting anomalies, and mantle plumes; and finally, geochemical mantle dynamics and mixing. - Self-contained volume starts with an overview of the subject then explores each topic in detail - Extensive reference lists and cross references with other volumes to facilitate further research - Full-color figures and tables support the text and aid in understanding - Content suited for both the expert and non-expert

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flood inundation models enable us to make hazard predictions for floodplains, mitigating increasing flood fatalities and losses. This book provides an understanding of hydraulic modelling and floodplain dynamics, with a key focus on state-of-the-art remote sensing data, and methods to estimate and communicate uncertainty. Academic researchers in the fields of hydrology, climate change, environmental science and natural hazards, and professionals and policy-makers working in flood risk mitigation, hydraulic engineering and remote sensing will find this an invaluable resource. This volume is the third in a collection of four books on flood disaster management theory and practice within the context of anthropogenic climate change. The others are: Floods in a Changing Climate: Extreme Precipitation by Ramesh Teegavarapu, Floods in a Changing Climate: Hydrological Modeling by P. P. Mujumdar and D. Nagesh Kumar and Floods in a Changing Climate: Risk Management by Slodoban Simonović.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Understanding the structure of the flow in shallow embayments is crucial for quantifying mass transfer (nutrients, sediments or pollution) between the main flow and groyne fields in rivers. Most previous research has focused on two-dimensional flow structures in embayments. Also, the rigid-lid assumption was often employed neglecting the effects of surface gravity waves that can occur in the embayment as a result of resonant coupling between the natural frequency of the embayment and the flow. In the present work a fully three-dimensional flow field and gravity waves are investigated in a laboratory setting using three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry (3D-PTV). Three cameras were mounted above an open channel (40 cm wide) with a square embayment on its side (24x24 cm). Trajectories of neutrally-buoyant particles (0.23 mm in diameter) used as flow tracers were simultaneously recorded with the cameras at a rate of 600 frames per second. Fully three-dimensional instantaneous and time-averaged velocity and vorticity fields were calculated from the particle tracks and surface oscillations caused by gravity waves were approximated from the highest particle positions. 3D-PTV was performed for the first time through the water's free surface. Novel methods were developed to assess different components of the velocity error showing that accurate measurements through a free water surface are possible when the average displacement of particles per frame is much smaller than the wavelength of surface oscillations. The results of the 3D-PTV measurements show a regular quasi-two-dimensional recirculating gyre in the embayment. However, the exchange process between the embayment and the channel flow is fully three-dimensional. It exhibits a -5/3 slope of the frequency spectrum of velocity fluctuations and the exchange shows significant variation with elevation above the bed. A secondary circulation within the embayment gyre appears in the time-averaged flow. It consists of a radial inflow along the bed towards the gyre core, upwelling at the embayment centre and spiralling outwards closer to the surface. Görtler-like streamwise vortices were found in the boundary layer that curves along the three side walls of the embayment. Depending on the free-stream velocity, either one spiral structure or a pair of counter-rotating vortices on top of each other were present. All of these three-dimensional structures can have a significant effect on the exchange process, which therefore cannot be described by two-dimensional models. However, parameterizations based on stability arguments may be used in future to account for their feedback on the two-dimensional flow. Comparing cases with different intensities of gravity waves confirmed they increase the exchange between the embayment and the main channel. It is shown that gravity waves are resonantly amplified at certain free-stream velocities due to resonant coupling with the most energetic frequency of the main gyre within the embayment, contrary to previous studies. It is hoped that understanding the resonant state of the gravity waves may facilitate prediction of the increase in the exchange rate." --
