Description
Summary:This volume contains the edited proceedings of a workshop on stochastic models in geosystems held during the week of May 16, 1994 at the Institute for Mathematics and its applications at the University of Minnesota. The authors represent a broad interdisciplinary spectrum including mathematics, statistics, physics, geophysics, astrophysics, atmospheric physics, fluid mechanics, seismology and oceanography. The common underlying theme was stochastic modeling of geophysical phenomena and papers appearing in this volume reflect a number of research directions that are currently pursued in this area. From the methodological mathematical point of view most of the contributions fall within the areas of wave propagation in random media, passive scalar transport in random velocity flows, dynamical systems with random forcing and self-similarity concepts including multifractals.
