Special Issue in NPG

Nonlinear phenomena are essential ingredients in many oceanic and atmospheric processes, and successful understanding of them benefits from multidisciplinary collaboration between oceanographers, meteorologists, physicists and mathematicians. A Special Issue on Nonlinear Processes in Oceanic and Atmospheric Flows contains selected contributions from attendants to the workshop which, in the above spirit, was held in Castro Urdiales, Spain, in July 2008. The preface at the link below summarizes the Special Issue contributions, which include papers on the characterization of ocean transport in the Lagrangian and in the Eulerian frameworks, generation and variability of jets and waves, interactions of fluid flow with plankton dynamics or heavy drops, scaling in meteorological fields, and statistical properties of El Niño Southern Oscillation.

The preface of the special issue and the other papers are available free of charge at http://www.nonlin-processes-geophys.net/17/283/2010/npg-17-283-2010.html
