This volume provides an overview of the fluid aspects of the climate system, focusing on basic aspects as well as recent research developments. It will bring together contributions from diverse fields of the physical, mathematical and engineering sciences. The volume will be useful to doctorate students, postdocs and researchers working on different aspects of atmospheric, oceanic and environmental fluid dynamics. It will also be of interest to researchers interested in quantitatively understanding how fluid dynamics can be applied to the climate system, and to climate scientists willing to gain a deeper insight into the fluid mechanics underlying climate processes.
Understanding climate variability using dynamical systems theory. - A theoretical introduction to atmospheric and oceanic convection. - Laboratory experiments on large-scale geophysical flows. - Individual particle based description of atmospheric dispersion: a dynamical systems approach. - The parameter optimization problem in state-of-the-art climate models and network analysis for systematic data mining in model intercomparison projects. - Climate dynamics on global scale: resilience, hysteresis and attribution of change. - Water in the climate system. - Climate dynamics on watershed scale: along the rainfall-runoff chain.
