Item description from seller

orig.boards Minor rubbing. VG. 24pp color plates. 26x18cm, xii,487,(24)pp "Written by a group of international experts in their field, this book is a review of Lagrangian observation, analysis and assimilation methods in physical and biological oceanography. This multidisciplinary text presents new results on nonlinear analysis of Lagrangian dynamics, the prediction of particle trajectories, and Lagrangian stochastic models. It includes historical information, up-to-date developments, and speculation on future developments in Lagrangian-based observations, analysis, and modeling of physical and biological systems. Containing contributions from experimentalists, theoreticians, and modellers in the fields of physical oceanography, marine biology, mathematics, and meteorology, this book will be of great interest to researchers and graduate students looking for both practical applications and information on the theory of transport and dispersion in physical systems, biological modelling, and data assimilation" - publisher's descrtiption. [Contents: Evolution of Lagrangian methods in oceanography; Measuring surface currents with Surface Velocity Program drifters: the instrument, its data, and some recent results; Favourite trajectories; Particle motion in a sea of eddies;Inertial particle dynamics on the rotating Earth; Predictability of Lagrangian motion in the upper ocean; Lagrangian data assimilation in ocean general circulation models; Dynamic consistency and Lagrangian data in oceanography: mapping, assimilation and optimization schemes; Observing turbulence regimes and Lagrangian dispersal properties in the ocean. …
