Buoyancy is one of the main forces driving flows on our planet,
especially in the oceans and atmosphere. These flows range from
buoyant coastal currents to dense overflows in the ocean, and from
avalanches to volcanic pyroclastic flows on the Earth's surface.
This book brings together contributions by leading world scientists
to summarize our present theoretical, observational, experimental
and modeling understanding of buoyancy-driven flows.
Buoyancy-driven currents play a key role in the global ocean
circulation and in climate variability through their impact on
deep-water formation. Buoyancy-driven currents are also primarily
responsible for the redistribution of fresh water throughout the
world's oceans. This book is an invaluable resource for advanced
students and researchers in oceanography, geophysical fluid
dynamics, atmospheric science and the wider Earth sciences who need
a state-of-the-art reference on buoyancy-driven flows.
