[edit] MODELING DYNAMIC CLIMATE SYSTEMS

The nonlinear and complex dynamics of the atmosphere, ocean, and climate make computer models ideal for accurate, complete understanding of these systems. This book helps the reader learn how the different components of climate systems function, interact with each other, and vary over time. It focuses on the effects of climate change.

The dynamics of the atmosphere, ocean, and climate are inherently nonlinear and complex, making computer models ideal for accurate, complete understanding of these systems. In the process of building and using models, the reader of this book will learn how the different components of climate systems function, interact with each other, and vary over time. Topics covered include the stability of climate, earth's energy balance, parcel dynamics in the atmosphere, the mechanisms of heat transport in the climate system, and mechanisms of climate variability. Special attention is given to the effects of climate change. The book is accompanied by a cross-platform CD containing models and a run-time version of STELLA (R) software.
