Authors:
- Presents results on the Lagrangian study of large-scale mixing and transport in the ocean from simple examples to realistic problems
- Introduces the basic concepts from dynamical system theory, making the book accessible to those in the oceanographic community without strong mathematical backgrounds
- Describes the use of satellite and buoy data in the generation of numerical forecasting models of the ocean
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
Part of the book series: Physics of Earth and Space Environments (EARTH)
