Description

Both hydrologists and meteorologists need to speak a common scientific language, and this has given rise to the new scientific discipline of hydrometeorology, which deals with the transfer of water and energy across the land/atmosphere interface. Terrestrial Hydrometeorology is the first graduate-level text with sufficient breadth and depth to be used in hydrology departments to teach relevant aspects of meteorology, and in meteorological departments to teach relevant aspects of hydrology, and to serve as an introductory text to teach the emerging discipline of hydrometeorology.The book will be essential reading for graduate students studying surface water hydrology, meteorology, and hydrometeorology. It can also be used in advanced undergraduate courses, and will be welcomed by academic and professional hydrologists and meteorologists worldwide.Additional resources for this book can be found at: http://www.wiley.com/go/shuttleworth/hydrometeorology.Content: Chapter 1 Terrestrial Hydrometeorology and the Global Water Cycle (pages 1–13): Chapter 2 Water Vapor in the Atmosphere (pages 14–24): Chapter 3 Vertical Gradients in the Atmosphere (pages 25–35): Chapter 4 Surface Energy Fluxes (pages 36–47): Chapter 5 Terrestrial Radiation (pages 48–65): Chapter 6 Soil Temperature and Heat Flux (pages 66–76): Chapter 7 Measuring Surface Heat Fluxes (pages 77–95): Chapter 8 General Circulation Models (pages 96–106): Chapter 9 Global Scale Influences on Hydrometeorology (pages 107–127): Chapter 10 Formation of Clouds (pages 128–142): Chapter 11 Formation of Precipitation (pages 143–154): Chapter 12 Precipitation Measurement and Observation (pages 155–175): Chapter 13 Precipitation Analysis in Time (pages 176–197): Chapter 14 Precipitation Analysis in Space (pages 198–212): Chapter 15 Mathematical and Conceptual Tools of Turbulence (pages 213–230): Chapter 16 Equations of Atmospheric Flow in the ABL (pages 231–247): Chapter 17 Equations of Turbulent Flow in the ABL (pages 248–258): Chapter 18 Observed ABL Profiles: Higher Order Moments (pages 259–276): Chapter 19 Turbulent Closure, K Theory, and Mixing Length (pages 277–288): Chapter 20 Surface Layer Scaling and Aerodynamic Resistance (pages 289–299): Chapter 21 Canopy Processes and Canopy Resistances (pages 300–315): Chapter 22 Whole?Canopy Interactions (pages 316–333): Chapter 23 Daily Estimates of Evaporation (pages 334–358): Chapter 24 Soil Vegetation Atmosphere Transfer Schemes (pages 359–379): Chapter 25 Sensitivity to Land Surface Exchanges (pages 380–403): Chapter 26 Example Questions and Answers (pages 404–440):

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
