In this wide-ranging and comprehensive review of the historical
development and current status of ocean circulation models, the
analysis extends from simple analytical approaches to the latest
high-resolution numerical models with data assimilation. The
authors, both of whom are pioneer scientists in ocean and shelf sea
modelling, look back at the evolution of Western and Eastern
modelling methodologies during the second half of the last century.
They also present the very latest information on ocean climate
modelling and offer examples for a number of oceans and shelf
seas.
The book includes a critical analysis of literature on ocean
climate variability modelling, as well as assessing the strengths
and weaknesses of the best-known modelling techniques. It also
anticipates future developments in the field, focusing on models
based on a synthesis of numerical simulation and field observation,
and on nonlinear thermodynamic model data synthesis.
