Climatology

Climate Change inPrehistoryThe End of the Reign of ChaosWilliam James Burroughsformerly UK Department of Energy

How did humankind deal with theextreme challenges of the last Ice Age?How have the relatively benign post-IceAge conditions affected the evolutionand spread of humanity across theglobe? By setting our genetic history inthe context of climate change duringprehistory, the origin of many featuresof our modern world are identified andpresented in this illuminating book. Itreviews the aspects of our physiologyand intellectual development that havebeen influenced by climatic factors, andhow features of our lives - diet,language and the domestication ofanimals - are also the product of theclimate in which we evolved. In short:climate change in prehistory has inmany ways made us what we are today.Climate Change in Prehistory weavestogether studies of the climate withanthropological, archaeological andhistorical studies, and will fascinate allthose interested in the effects of climateon human development and history.

• Gives a detailed and coherentpresentation of how the climate aroundthe world has changed over last100,000 years

• Provides a global assessment of howthe genetic history of modern humanscan be interpreted in terms of evidenceof climate change

• Shows from a global perspective howthe evolution of human economic andsocial structures has been governed byclimatic factors

• Weaves together climatologicalanalysis with anthropological,archaeological and historical studies toprovide a unique perspective on ancienthuman history

HydrologyAn IntroductionWilfried BrutsaertCornell University, New York

Water in its different forms has alwaysbeen a source of wonder, curiosity andpractical concern for humanseverywhere. Hydrology - An Introductionpresents a coherent introduction to thefundamental principles of hydrology,based on the course that WilfriedBrutsaert has taught at CornellUniversity for the last thirty years.Hydrologic phenomena are dealt with atspatial and temporal scales at whichthey occur in nature. The physics andmathematics necessary to describethese phenomena are introduced anddeveloped, and readers will require aworking knowledge of calculus andbasic fluid mechanics. The book will beinvaluable as a textbook for entry-levelcourses in hydrology directed atadvanced seniors and graduate studentsin physical science and engineering. Inaddition, the book will be more broadlyof interest to professional scientists andengineers in hydrology, environmentalscience, meteorology, agronomy,geology, climatology, oceanology,glaciology and other earth sciences.

• Emphasis on fundamentals

• Clarification of the underlying physicalprocesses

• Applications of fluid mechanics in thenatural environmentPre-publication praise for Hydrology -An Introduction:‘Wilfried Brutsaert presents the topicsof classical hydrology through rigorousformulations of their governing fluidmechanics starting from firstprinciples. Drawing upon his broadpersonal experience and employingboth clear prose and revealingillustrations, he discusses and supportsthe approximations needed to answerquantitative questions. His finetextbook will become the acceptedstarting point for learning this branchof geophysics.’Peter S. Eagleson, Professor Emeritus, Civil andEnvironmental Engineering, MassachusettsInstitute of Technology

‘A remarkable new textbook …insightful chapters that explain thebasic principles on which the practiceof hydrology as both a profession anda science is founded. … The languageis informal - that of the patient masterpassing on both knowledge andwisdom to a new generation. … Thosewho learn from this book will berewarded by gaining understandingand competence at the highest level;those who teach from it will beblessed by the steadfast assistance ofan impeccable source, wrought from along and productive experience by oneof the great figures in scientifichydrology.’Garrison Sposito, Professor of EcosystemSciences and Environmental Engineering,University of California at Berkeley

‘Brutsaert provides a uniquely logicaland comprehensive construction ofhydrologic science which takentogether provides a new vision of thenature of the discipline … In this bookBrutsaert has provided a ladder forstudent and teacher to build a solidunderstanding from principles topractice … This book provides aremarkable, sorely needed,foundational text upon which thescience of hydrology will build in thecoming decades.’John Selker, Professor of Bioengineering, OregonState University

The transformation of barotropic tidalenergy into turbulence and heat is animportant process for the dynamics ofthe lower ocean. Baroclinic Tidesdemonstrates the analytical andnumerical methods used to study thegeneration and evolution of baroclinictides and, by comparison withexperiments and observational data,shows how to distinguish and interpretinternal waves. Strongly non-linearsolitary internal waves are investigatedin detail. This book is intended forresearchers and graduate students ofphysical oceanography, geophysical fluiddynamics and hydroacoustics.

Astrobiology combines the sciences ofbiology, chemistry, palaeontology,geology, atmospheric physics, planetaryscience, astrophysics and cosmology inthe study of the origin, evolution anddistribution of life in the universe. TheInternational Journal of Astrobiology isa new journal which acts as animportant forum for practitioners in thisrapidly expanding field. Coverageincludes cosmic prebiotic chemistry,planetary evolution, the search forplanetary systems and habitable zones,extremophile biology and experimentalsimulation of extraterrestrialenvironments, life detection in our solarsystem and beyond, intelligent life andsocietal aspects of astrobiology.Subscriptions

JOURNAL

Journal of FluidMechanicsEditors: Stephen H. DavisNorthwestern University

and T. J. PedleyUniversity of Cambridge

Journal of Fluid Mechanics is theleading international journal in the fieldand is essential reading for all thoseconcerned with developments in fluidmechanics. It publishes authoritativearticles covering theoretical,computational and experimentalinvestigations of all aspects of themechanics of fluids. Each issue containspapers on both the fundamental aspectsof fluid mechanics, and theirapplications to other fields such asaeronautics, astrophysics, physiology,chemical and mechanical engineering,hydraulics, meteorology, oceanography,geology, acoustics and combustion.Subscriptions
