Rotating Hydraulics Nonlinear Topographic Effects in the Ocean and Atmosphere
Although the primary focus is on the theory, a number of case studies, including the Faroe Bank overflow and the California coastal marine layer winds, are presented along with numerous laboratory experiments. Exercises are presented at the end of most sections. The presentation should allow there...
