General Circulation of the Ocean
Av Henry Abarbanel, W.R. Young
Häftad, 2011
1096 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The ocean has entranced mankind for as long as we have gazed upon it, traversed it, dived into it, and studied it. It remains ever changing and seemingly never changing. Each wave that progresses through the. imme diate surf zone on every coast is strikingly different, yet the waves come again and …
Intense Atmospheric Vortices
Proceedings of the Joint Symposium (IUTAM/IUGG) held at Reading (United Kingdom) July 14–17, 1981

The concept of vorticity is of central importance in fluid mechanics and the change and variability of atmospheric flow is dominated by transient vortices of different time- and space scales. Of particular importance are the most in- tense vortices such as hurricanes, typhoons and tornadoes which …
Problems and Prospects in Long and Medium Range Weather Forecasting

Forecasting the weather for the long and medium range is a difficult and scientifically challenging problem. Since the first operational weather prediction by numerical methods was carried out (on the BESK computer in Stockholm, Sweden, 1954) . there has been an ever accelerating development in …
Eddies in Marine Science

It is now well known that the mid-ocean flow is almost everywhere domi nated by so-called synoptic or meso-scale eddies, rotating about nearly vertical axes and extending throughout the water column. A typical mid ocean horizontal scale is 100 km and a time scale is 100 days: these meso scale …
Multiprocessing in Meteorological Models
Av Geerd-R. Hoffmann, David F. Snelling
Häftad, 2011

Lägg i varukorg
Numerical weather prediction on the one hand needs a very large number of floating point calculations, but on the other hand is very time-critical. Therefore, the largest computers available, i.e., the "supercomputers", have usually been acquired by the national meteorological services long before …
Dawn of Massively Parallel Processing in Meteorology
Proceedings of the 3rd Workshop on Use of Parallel Processors in Meteorology

The Dawn of Massively Parallel Processing in Meteorology presents collected papers of the third workshop on this topic held at the European Centre of Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). It provides an insight into the state of the art in using parallel processors operationally, and allows …
