This new edition of Guide to Process Based Modeling of Lakes and
Coastal Seas brings the modeling up to date, taking into account
multiple stressors acting on aquatic systems. The combination of
acidification and increasing amounts of anoxic waters associated
with eutrophication puts severe stress on the marine environment.
The detection and attribution of anthropogenic changes in coastal
seas are therefore crucial and transparent modeling tools are
increasingly important. Modeling the marine CO2–O2 system makes
systematic studies on climate change and eutrophication possible
and is fundamental for understanding the Earth system. This second
edition also includes new sections on detection and attribution and
on modeling future changes, as well as improved exercises, updated
software, and datasets. This unique book will stimulate students
and researchers to develop their modeling skills and make model
codes and data transparent to other research groups. It uses the
general equation solver PROBE to introduce process-oriented
numerical modeling and to build understanding of the subject step
by step. The equation solver has been used in many applications,
particularly in Sweden and Finland with their numerous lakes,
archipelago seas, fjords, and coastal zones. It has also been used
for process studies in the Polar Seas and the Mediterranean Sea and
the approach is suitable for applications in many other
environmental applications. Guide to Process Based Modeling of
Lakes and Coastal Seas: • is a unique teaching tool for
systematic learning of aquatic modeling; • approaches lake and
ocean modeling from a new angle; • introduces aquatic numerical
modeling using a process-based approach; • enables the thorough
understanding of the physics and biogeochemistry of lakes and
coastal seas; • provides software, datasets, and algorithms
needed to reproduce all calculations and results in the book; •
provides a number of creative and stimulating exercises with
solutions; • addresses the interaction between climate change and
eutrophication and is a good basis for learning Earth System
Sciences.
