Summary
Introduces the reader to advanced methods used in the computer-based modelling of fluid processes, including nonhydrostatic processes such as breaking internal waves and density-driven convection, and uses the model code to simulate an El-Nino event. This book contains 25 practical exercises, using Open-Source software suites
