Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating exploration of the initialization problem in large-scale dynamical meteorology, which deals with providing missing initial data needed to solve equations that describe atmospheric motion. The author begins by highlighting the historical context of the problem, emphasizing its significance in numerical weather prediction and the development of global circulation models. The book takes a unique approach, focusing on the mathematical treatment of differential equations governing atmospheric motion rather than numerical methods. It shows that the initialization problem is indeterminate, requiring additional information beyond atmospheric temperature and pressure fields to find the velocity field. The author proposes a novel method based on compatibility conditions between wind and pressure fields. They argue that these conditions represent an instantaneous property of the primitive equations, rather than an integral property involving a finite time span. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the initialization problem, offering valuable insights into the limitations and possibilities of various approaches. It is an essential read for researchers and practitioners in meteorology, atmospheric science, and related fields. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
