Physics and Ecology in Fluids: Modeling and Numerical Experiments
develops mathematical and numerical modeling methodologies for
coupled biological-hydrodynamic problems with a focus on process
studies. The modeling is presented in a way that discusses
mathematical background but does not depend on a large body of
mathematical pre-requisites or experience. Models are built up from
simple, to complex. This includes discussion of approximations and
shortcuts commonly made by large computational models for natural
bodies of water. Computational approaches are presented using
conceptual explanations and pseudo-code along with well-documented,
open-source code. Over a dozen codes that run locally on the
reader's laptop provide hands on experience with various aspects of
the modeling process and its scientific results. One large-scale
code for basin scale modeling based on the Discontinuous Galerkin
methodology is presented, along with a self-contained discussion of
theoretical background and implementation details. Physics and
Ecology in Fluids is written for graduate students, academic
researchers and government scientists. Professors can use the book
as a stand-alone resource for a one term graduate course, or to
supplement teaching of their own graduate courses. All readers may
also use the book as background/user's guide for the software
included with the book.
