Designed for students, researchers, and professionals in meteorology and environmental sciences, this text provides an in-depth look at meteorological instruments, including their principles, calibration techniques, and…
Wave breaking represents one of the most interesting and challenging problems for fluid mechanics and physical oceanography. Over the last 15 years our understanding has undergone a dramatic leap forward, and wave breaking has emerged as a process whose physics is clarified and quantified. Ocean wave breaking plays the primary role in the air-sea exchange of momentum, mass and heat, and it is o…
