Geophysical fluid dynamics : understanding (almost) everything with rotating shallow water models /
For the dynamics of large and medium scale motions in the oceans and the atmosphere, a simplified rotating shallow water model, obtained by vertical averaging, is used throughout the book in order to explain the fundamentals, and to give in-depth treatment of important dynamical processes.
