Can I read Transport and Mixing in Geophysical Flows : Creators of Modern Physics on EtoBox?
Transport and Mixing in Geophysical Flows : Creators of Modern Physics by J.-L. Thiffeault (auth.), Jeffrey B. Weiss, Antonello Provenzale (eds.) is a science book available to read on EtoBox.
What is Transport and Mixing in Geophysical Flows : Creators of Modern Physics about?
Transports in fluids can be approached from two complementary perspectives. In the Eulerian view of mixing, the focus is on the concentration field. In the Langrangian view, fluid parcels are followed around as they move with the flow, experiencing chaotic or stochastic motion. This book examines both pictures, presenting a number of theoretical and experimental lectures on various aspects of transport and mixing of active and passive particles in geophysical flows.
Who reads Transport and Mixing in Geophysical Flows : Creators of Modern Physics?
It is typically read by self-directed learners exploring a subject in depth.
Common subject areas: history, science, philosophy, social sciences.
