Atmospheric Modeling - The IMA Volumes in Mathematics and its Applications David P Chock Softcover reprint of hardcover 1st ed. 2002 edition

Description for Sales People: This volume contains refereed papers submitted by international experts who participated in the Atmospheric Modeling workshop March 15 -19, 2000 at the Institute for Mathematics and Its Applications (IMA) at the University of Minnesota. The papers cover a wide range of mathematics and modeling topics presented in the workshop. The volume provides an excellent cross section of current research activities in atmospheric modeling. Table of Contents: Solving vertical transport and chemistry in air pollution models * Time-stepping methods that favor positivity for atmospheric chemistry modeling * Some aspects of multi-timescales issues for the numerical modeling of atmospheric chemistry * Resolution of pollutant concentrations using a fully 3D adaptive method * Effect of grid resolution and subgrid assumptions on the model prediction of non-homogeneous atmospheric chemistry * Numerical solution of trace species advection under non-uniform density distribution: experiment with two-dimensional linear flows * Coupled transport-chemistry computations in 4D-var data assimilation for air pollution models * 4D-var data assimilation and its numerical implications for case study analyses * Running a large-scale air pollution model on fast supercomputers * An efficient 3-D model for global circulation, transport and chemistry * Development of a global-through-urban scale nested and coupled air pollution and weather forecast model and application to the SARMAP field campaign * Modeling atmospheric particulate matter in an air quality modeling system using a modal method * Modeling emissions and chemistry of monoterpenes for regional modelsMarc Notes: Originally published: 2002.; This volume contains refereed papers submitted by international experts who participated in the Atmospheric Modeling workshop March 15-19, 2000 at the Institute for Mathematics and Its Applications (IMA) at the University of Minnesota.
