Understanding, modeling and prediction of mesoscale processes in
the atmosphere, ocean and environmental systems, have gained
importance in the last decade or so. This is because of the
availability of more sophisticated observational systems, provided
by technological innovations and more realistic simulations using
advanced dynamical models.
This volume contains many original findings on mesoscale
processes in atmospheric and oceanic systems through mathematical
modeling, numerical simulations and field experiments. These
scientific papers examine and provide the latest developments on a
range of topics that include tropical cyclones/hurricanes,
mesoscale variability and modeling, seasonal monsoons and land
surface processes including atmospheric boundary layer. This volume
will be useful as a reading material in graduate level courses
dealing with mesoscale systems, weather, climate, monsoon
variability and boundary layer. The scientific community at large
will find this book a useful addition to their personal and
institutional libraries.
