The Equations of Oceanic Motions.
Muller, Peter.

The Equations of Oceanic Motions.[electronic resource]. - Leiden :Cambridge University Press,2006. - 303 p.

Cover; Half-title; Title; Copyright; Contents; Preface; 1 Introduction; 2 Equilibrium thermodynamics of sea water; 3 Balance equations; 4 Molecular flux laws; 5 The gravitational potential; 6 The basic equations; 7 Dynamic impact of the equation of state; 8 Free wave solutions on a sphere; 9 Asymptotic expansions; 10 Reynolds decomposition; 11 Boussinesq approximation; 12 Large-scale motions; 13 Primitive equations; 14 Representation of vertical structure; 15 Ekman layers; 16 Planetary geostrophic flows; 17 Tidal equations; 18 Medium-scale motions; 19 Quasi-geostrophic flows

This comprehensive textbook derives and classifies the most common dynamic equations used in physical oceanography, emphasizing the assumptions made and the physical processes eliminated. Providing a clear exposition of the concepts for graduate students and researchers of physical oceanography, all of the necessary mathematical tools are covered in appendices.
