Editorial Reviews
Review
'... there are numerous excellent articles and the book gives a reasonable introduction to those researchers and graduate students who have some knowledge to the topic.' D. B. Ingham, Contemporary Physics
Book Description
Increases in computer power and technology have rapidly advanced the applications of numerical modeling in environmental and earth sciences. The progress of numerical modeling in atmospheric, oceanic, and geophysical sciences was the topic of an international conference held by the National Autonomous University of Mexico. The review articles and research papers in this volume constitute a wide-ranging and up-to-date account of modeling environmental and earth processes through a variety of numerical simulations. Sections are devoted to such topics as General Circulation Models and global change, methods of geophysical data assimilation, and mathematical and computational methods with geophysical applications. This book forms an excellent introduction and overview for graduate students as well as a critical update for researchers.
