Atmospheres and Oceans on Computers: Fundamental Numerical Methods for Geophysical Fluid Dynamics by Lars Petter RøedEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2018 (2019 Edition) | 293 Pages | ISBN : 3319938630 | 17.64 MB
This textbook introduces step by step the basic numerical methods to solve the equations governing the motion of the atmosphere and ocean, and describes how to develop a set of corresponding instructions for the computer as part of a code. Today's computers are powerful enough to allow 7-day forecasts within hours, and modern teaching of the subject requires a combination of theoretical and computational approaches.
