Waves and flows are pervasive on and within Earth. This book
presents a unified physical and mathematical approach to waves and
flows in the atmosphere, oceans, rivers, volcanoes and the mantle,
emphasizing the common physical principles and mathematical methods
that apply to a variety of phenomena and disciplines. It is
organized into seven parts: introductory material; kinematics,
dynamics and rheology; waves in non-rotating fluids; waves in
rotating fluids; non-rotating flows; rotating flows; and silicate
flows. The chapters are supplemented by 47 'fundaments', containing
knowledge that is fundamental to the material presented in the main
text, organized into seven appendices: mathematics; dimensions and
units; kinematics; dynamics; thermodynamics; waves; and flows. This
book is an ideal reference for graduate students and researchers
seeking an introduction to the mathematics of waves and flows in
the Earth system, and will serve as a supplementary textbook for a
number of courses in geophysical fluid dynamics.
