This book covers comprehensive text and reference work on atmospheric models for methods of numerical modeling and important related areas of data assimilation and predictability. It incorporates various aspects of environmental computer modeling including an historical overview of the subject, approximations to land surface and atmospheric physics and dynamics, radiative transfer and applications in satellite remote sensing, and data assimilation. With individual chapters authored by eminent professionals in their respective topics, Advanced Topics in application of atmospheric models try to provide in-depth guidance on some of the key applied in atmospheric models for scientists and modelers.
The application of electromagnetic radiation in modern life is one of the most developing technologies. In this timely book, the authors comprehensively treat two integrated aspects of electromagnetic radiation, theory and application. It covers a wide scope of practical topics, including medical treatment, telecommunication systems, and radiation effects. The book sections have clear presentation, some state of the art examples, which makes this book an indispensable reference book for electromagnetic radiation applications.
The 3rd edition of Mesoscale Meteorological Modeling is a fully revised resource for researchers and practitioners in the growing field of meteorological modeling at the mesoscale. Pielke has enhanced the new edition by quantifying model capability (uncertainty) by a detailed evaluation of the assumptions of parameterization and error propagation. Mesoscale models are applied in a wide variety of studies, including weather prediction, regional and local climate assessments, and air pollution investigations. - Broad expansion of the concepts of parameterization and parameterization methodology - Addition of new modeling approaches, including modeling summaries and summaries of data sets - All-new section on dynamic downscaling
Water is an important natural resource which forms the core of the ecological system. Human use of water depends on ambient water quality and human alterations of the landuse have an extensive influence on water quality. Water is typically referred to as polluted when its quality is adversely affected by contaminants and undergoes a marked shift in its capability to support the biological communities. The book is written for research scholars, hydrologists and environmentalists and especially students.
When data are scarce, hydrological predictions become unreliable, mainly due to the inability to specify model components and parameter values that consistently represent the dominant hydrological processes in a particular basin, and also due to the lack of high quality model forcing. This is a problem in developed and developing countries, and the focus of much research worldwide. This proceedings volume, from a symposium of the same name heldin Hyderabad, India, September 2009, contains 40 papers from over 20 countries. They reflect differing aspects of, and approaches to, the problem and are grouped accordingly: Hydrological modelling in poorly gauged and ungauged basins Hydrometeorology and climate change assessment Remote sensing applications in hydrology Characterizing rainfall variability & its impacts on hydrological modelling
Cumhuriyet tarihinin en uzun süreli eğitim bakanı Hasan Âli Yücel hakkında etraflı bir biyografi. Yücel’in özdeşleştiği etkili bakanlık icraatı, başta hümanist kültür mirasıyla ilgili çeviri seferberliği ve Köy Enstitüleri tecrübesi, kitabın uzun bir bölümünü oluşturuyor. Fakat sadece o değil. Yücel’in milliyetçilik anlayışı, Kemalizm yorumları, dindarlığı anlama ve yaşama biçimi, geniş yer tutuyor. Bu arada onun üslûbuna ve meşrebine özel bir ilgiyle eğilerek... Hasan Âli Yücel’in düşman imgesi olarak, anti-komünist tehdit ve nefret söyleminin gözde bir malzemesi olarak gördüğü işlev de ele alınıyor. Çalışma esasen bir entelektüel biyografi özelliği taşıyor; yazdıklarına, söylediklerine yoğunlaşarak, Yücel’in düşünce dünyasında bir gezinti.
