Mathematical Geoscience is an expository textbook which aims to
provide a comprehensive overview of a number of different subjects
within the Earth and environmental sciences. Uniquely, it treats
its subjects from the perspective of mathematical modelling with a
level of sophistication that is appropriate to their proper
investigation. The material ranges from the introductory level,
where it can be used in undergraduate or graduate courses, to
research questions of current interest. The chapters end with notes
and references, which provide an entry point into the literature,
as well as allowing discursive pointers to further research
avenues. The introductory chapter provides a condensed synopsis of
applied mathematical techniques of analysis, as used in modern
applied mathematical modelling. There follows a succession of
chapters on climate, ocean and atmosphere dynamics, rivers, dunes,
landscape formation, groundwater flow, mantle convection, magma
transport, glaciers and ice sheets, and sub-glacial floods. This
book introduces a whole range of important geoscientific topics in
one single volume and serves as an entry point for a rapidly
expanding area of genuine interdisciplinary research. By addressing
the interplay between mathematics and the real world, this book
will appeal to graduate students, lecturers and researchers in the
fields of applied mathematics, the environmental sciences and
engineering.
