Advance Information MATHEMATICS OF PLANET EARTH A Primer By Darryl Holm (Imperial College London, UK), Colin Cotter (Imperial College London, UK), Davoud Cheraghi (Imperial College London, UK), Ben Calderhead (Imperial College London, UK), Jochen Broecker (University of Reading, UK), Tobias Kuna (University of Reading, UK), Ted Shepherd (University of Reading, UK), Hilary Weller (University of Reading, UK) & Beatrice Pelloni (Heriot-Watt University, UK) Edited by Dan Crisan (Imperial College London, UK) Description: Pub Date: Sep 2017 Mathematics of Planet Earth (MPE) was started and continues to be consolidated as Binding: Hardcover a collaboration of mathematical science organisations around the world. These ISBN: 978-1-78634-382-6 organisations work together to tackle global environmental, social and economic problems using mathematics. Price: £86 Page Extent: 250pp This textbook introduces the fundamental topics of MPE to advanced undergraduate Type: Textbook and graduate students in mathematics, physics and engineering while explaining their Main Subject: Mathematics modern usages and operational connections. In particular, it discusses the links between partial differential equations, data assimilation, dynamical systems, Sub-subjects: Mathematical mathematical modelling and numerical simulations and applies them to insightful Modeling; Statistics; Fluid examples. Mechanics; Earthquake Engineering; Ocean Engineering/ The text also complements advanced courses in geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD) for Coastal Engineering; meteorology, atmospheric science and oceanography. It links the fundamental Climatology/Meteorology scientific topics of GFD with their potential usage in applications of climate change and BIC: PBWH weather variability. The immediacy of examples provides an excellent introduction for BISAC: MAT003000; SCI042000; experienced researchers interested in learning the scope and primary concepts of MPE.
