The book provides some recent works in the study of some infinite-dimensional dynamical systems in atmospheric and oceanic science. It devotes itself to considering some infinite-dimensional dynamical systems in atmospheric and oceanic science, especially in geophysical fluid dynamics. The subject on geophysical fluid dynamics mainly tends to focus on the dynamics of large-scale phenomena in the atmosphere and the oceans. One of the important contents in the dynamics is to study the infinite-dimensional dynamical systems of the atmospheric and oceanic dynamics. The results in the study of some

The atmosphere is critical to climate change. It can amplify shifts in the climate system, and also mitigate them. This primer offers a short, reader-friendly introduction to these atmospheric processes and how they work, written by a leading expert on the subject. Giving readers an overview of key atmospheric processes, David Randall looks at how our climate system receives energy from the sun and sheds it by emitting infrared radiation back into space. The atmosphere regulates these radiative energy flows and transports energy through weather systems such as thunderstorms, monsoons, hurricanes, and winter storms. Randall explains how these processes work, and also how precipitation, cloud formation, and other phase changes of water strongly influence weather and climate. He discusses how atmospheric feedbacks affect climate change, how the large-scale atmospheric circulation works, how predicting the weather and the climate are fundamentally different challenges, and much more. This is the ideal introduction for students and nonspecialists. No prior experience in atmospheric science is needed, only basic college physics. Authoritative and concise, Atmosphere, Clouds, and Climate features a glossary of terms, suggestions for further reading, and easy-to-follow explanations of a few key equations. This accessible primer is the essential introduction to atmospheric processes and the vital role they play in our climate system.

L'air et l'eau, chacun connaît ; nous savons que sans ces deux fluides, notre vie serait impossible sur Terre. Et après ? Que savons-nous sur eux ? Depuis quelques années, des événements graves se multiplient : cyclones, tornades, tsunamis, inondations… mais sait-on comment cela fonctionne ? Le livre apporte les réponses à ces questions. Tout d'abord, on considère l'air et l'eau dans des situations dites " à l'équilibre ", c'est-à-dire pour lesquelles on se pose d'ordinaire peu de questions. Puis on aborde les phénomènes dynamiques aux diverses échelles. Le parti pris est de décrire avant d'expliquer. L'ouvrage se termine par la présentation de constructions humaines (barrages, ports…) destinées à domestiquer et utiliser l'eau à notre avantage Le lecteur se voit proposer une promenade à diverses échelles, des alizés aux nuages, du Gulf Stream aux vaguelettes. Ainsi il découvre et comprend de façon intuitive les phénomènes. Ceux qui désirent des démonstrations plus physiques et mathématiques iront visiter le site web en libre accès du pap-ebook et auront besoin d'un niveau scientifique supérieur. La majorité des lecteurs effectuera une promenade sur Terre avec nos deux fluides fétiches grâce à un livre remarquablement illustré avec ses index, glossaire, annexe, et aussi avec les films du site web. Ce livre restera un incontournable de la bibliothèque que l'on pourra conserver pour le consulter à nouveau, et l'utiliser comme base de toute recherche sur l'air et l'eau.

This is a book on the practical side of tropical meteorology which in its 3 Parts covered in 12 chapters reviews several current theories and ideas on tropical circulations and monsoons, offering new definitions and ideas to facilitate a systematic development of the subject. The book emphasizes the need for a system’s approach to tropical circulations in general and monsoons in particular to facilitate orderly and systematic development of the topic.
