Introduction to PDEs and Waves for the Atmosphere and Ocean
Andrew Majda
Courant Institute of Mathemetical Sciences
Based on graduate courses taught at the Courant Institute, these lectures describe the properties and instability of stratified flows, rotating shallow water theory, the theory of dispersive waves, the limiting dynamics of strongly stratified turbulence, the Boussinesq equations, and fast-wave averaging for geophysical flows.
