ISBN: 9780521792028 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Toward the end of the twentieth century, it became evident to professionals working within the meterological arena that the world's climate system was showing signs of change that could not be adequately explained in terms of natural variation. Since that time there has been an increasing recognition that the climate system is changing as a result of human industries and lifestyles, and that the outcomes may prove catastrophic to the world's escalating population. Compiled by an international team formed under the auspices of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), Climate: Into the 21st...

The Grip of Gravity: The Quest to Understand the Laws of Motion and Gravitation
ISBN: 9780521803168 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 370 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Gravity is one of the most inexplicable forces of nature, controlling everything, from the expansion of the Universe to the ebb and flow of ocean tides. The search for the laws of motion and gravitation began more than two thousand years ago, a quest that Prabhakar Gondhalekar recounts in The Grip of Gravity. Beginning with Aristotle and concluding with Planck, Gondhalekar outlines a 'genealogy' of gravity and lucidly explains how previous explanations have shaped the most recent development in the field, string theory. In this work, physicist and astronomer Gondhalekar describes experiments,...

Large-Scale Atmosphere-Ocean Dynamics: Volume 1: Analytical Methods and Numerical Models
ISBN: 9780521806817 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The complex flows in the atmosphere and oceans are believed to be accurately modelled by the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid mechanics together with classical thermodynamics. However, due to the enormous complexity of these equations, meteorologists and oceanographers have constructed approximate models of the dominant, large-scale flows that control the evolution of weather systems. The simplifications often result in models that are amenable to solution both analytically and numerically. This volume and its companion explain why such simplifications to Newton's second law produce accurate,...
