An Introduction to Global Spectral Modeling

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This is an introductory text on numerical weather prediction (numerically modelling the general circulation of the atmosphere), utilizing the spectral transform method. The book covers finite difference methods and time-differencing schemes; the theoretical development of the spectral transform method (using spherical surfaces rather than grids for determining variation in the elements of weather); physical processes; current issues in dynamical and physical initiation; and data analysis. Several practical examples of the spectral transform method are included.
