Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Winner of the Atmospheric Science Librarians International Choice Award as the best book of 2013, Mathematics and Climate emphasizes conceptual models that capture critical components of Earth's climate system and answers how and why certain phenomena happen. These models (energy balance-models and temperature distributions, ocean circulation patterns, ice caps and glaciation cycles, etc.) are used to introduce methods from applied mathematics, with emphasis on dynamical systems, bifurcation and stability theory, Fourier analysis, and statistics, including regression analysis and extreme value theory. Updated to reflect progress in the discipline, the Mathematics and Climate, Second Edition contains a layered atmosphere model for the greenhouse effect, a new chapter on a model for glacial cycles, and updated sections on paleoclimate reconstruction; includes exercises at the end of each chapter to stimulate critical thinking and communication skills; and provides suggestions for further study and more advanced projects, an extensive list of references, and a glossary of terms for the nontechnical reader. Exploring Earths climate through conceptual models and applied mathematics, the work employs dynamical systems, Fourier analysis, and statistics to unravel energy balances, ocean currents, glaciation cycles, and paleoclimate patterns. Engaging exercises prompt deeper critical insight. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Since its inception in 2013, Mathematics of Planet Earth (MPE) focuses on mathematical issues arising in the study of our planet. Interested in the impact of human activities on the Earth's system, this multidisciplinary field considers the planet not only as a physical system, but also as a system supporting life, a system organized by humans, and a system at risk. The articles collected in this volume demonstrate the breadth of techniques and tools from mathematics, statistics, and operations research used in MPE. Topics include climate modeling, the spread of infectious diseases, stability of ecosystems, ecosystem services, biodiversity, infrastructure restoration after an extreme event, urban environments, food security, and food safety. Demonstrating the mathematical sciences in action, this book presents real-world challenges for the mathematical sciences, highlighting applications to issues of current concern to society. Arranged into three topical sections (Geo- and Physical Sciences; Life Sciences, Ecology and Evolution; Socio-economics and Infrastructure), thirteen chapters address questions such as how to measure biodiversity, what mathematics can say about the sixth mass extinction, how to optimize the long-term human use of natural capital, and the impact of data on infrastructure management. The book also treats the subject of infectious diseases with new examples and presents an introduction to the mathematics of food systems and food security. Each chapter functions as an introduction that can be studied independently, offering source material for graduate student seminars and self-study. The range of featured research topics provides mathematical scientists with starting points for the study of our planet and the impact of human activities. At the same time, it offers application scientists a plethora of modern mathematical tools and techniques to address the various topics in practice. Including hundreds of references to the vast literature associated with each topic, this book serves as an inspiration for further research.…
