Introduction to Ocean Circulation and Modeling provide basics for
physical oceanography covering ocean properties, ocean circulations
and their modeling. First part of the book explains concepts of
oceanic circulation, geostrophy, Ekman, Sverdrup dynamics, Stommel
and Munk problems, two-layer dynamics, stratification, thermal and
salt diffusion, vorticity/instability, and so forth. Second part
highlights basic implementation framework for ocean models,
discussion of different models, and their unique differences from
the common framework with basin-scale modeling, regional modeling,
and interdisciplinary modeling at different space and time scales.
Features: Covers ocean properties, ocean circulations and their
modeling. Explains the centrality of a rotating earth and its
implications for ocean and atmosphere in a simple manner. Provides
basic facts of ocean dynamics. Illustrative diagrams for clear
understanding of key concepts. Outlines interdisciplinary and
complex models for societal applications. The book aims at Senior
Undergraduate Students, Graduate Students and Researchers in Ocean
Science and Engineering, Ocean Technology, Physical Oceanography,
Ocean Circulation, Ocean Modeling, Dynamical Oceanography and Earth
Science.
