Vortex Dynamics, Statistical Mechanics, and Planetary Atmospheres
introduces the reader with a background in either fluid mechanics
or statistical mechanics to the modeling of planetary atmospheres
by barotropic and shallow-water models. These potent models are
introduced in both analytical and numerical treatments highlighting
the ways both approaches inform and enlighten the other. This book
builds on Vorticity, Statistical Mechanics, and Monte Carlo
Simulations by Lim and Nebus in providing a rare introduction to
this intersection of research fields. While the book reaches the
cutting edge of atmospheric models, the exposition requires little
more than an undergraduate familiarity with the relevant fields of
study, and so this book is well suited to individuals hoping to
swiftly learn an exciting new field of study. With inspiration
drawn from the atmospheres of Venus and of Jupiter, the physical
relevance of the work is never far from consideration, and the
bounty of results shows a new and fruitful perspective with which
to study planetary atmospheres.
