Self-organized Criticality and Predictability in Atmospheric Flows The Quantum World of Clouds and Rain

Self-organized Criticality and Predictability in Atmospheric Flows The Quantum World of Clouds and Rain / by Amujuri Mary Selvam.

This book presents a new concept of General Systems Theory and its application to atmospheric physics. It reveals that energy input into the atmospheric eddy continuum, whether natural or manmade, results in enhancement of fluctuations of all scales, manifested immediately in the intensification of...
