Description
This interdisciplinary text combines rigorous dynamical systems theory with geophysical fluid dynamics to analyze Lagrangian transport phenomena. The authors examine how particles move through jets and waves in the ocean and atmosphere using modern mathematical techniques including chaotic dynamics, invariant manifolds, and bifurcation theory.
The book bridges the gap between abstract dynamical systems concepts and practical geophysical applications. It explores how these mathematical tools reveal hidden structures in fluid flows that govern mixing, particle dispersion, and contaminant transport. The work is essential for researchers studying climate dynamics, ocean circulation, and atmospheric transport processes.
Designed for graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics, fluid dynamics, and geophysics, this volume integrates theory with environmental relevance, making it valuable for understanding complex natural phenomena.
