Красной нитью этого тома является идея подставления различных методов исследования процессов, происходящих в реальных озёрах. Часть I посвящена подходам и техникам численного моделирования, приложенным к демонстрации отклика озера на ветровое воздействие. Она начинается с представления баротропных и бароклинных течений и распределений температуры воды, формирующихся в озере Цюрих в результате действия различных ветровых сценариев.

This book is designed to serve as a textbook for graduate students or advanced undergraduates studying numerical methods for the solution of partial differential equations goveming wave-like flows. Although the majority of the schemes presented in this text were introduced in either the applied-rnathematics or atmospheric- science literature, the focus is not on the nuts-and-bolts details of various atmospheric models but on fundamental numerical methods that have applications in a wide range of scientific and engineering disciplines. The prototype problems considered include tracer transport, shallow-water flow and the evolution of internal waves in a continuously stratified fluid.

This book is based at the level of a bachelor’s degree in physical science. Experience at Stanford indicates that a one-semester class in engineering systems theory provides helpful additional background. It will be readable to a general science and engineering audience and should be useful to anyone interested in computer modeling and data analysis in physical sciences.

Seasonal dynamics of stream networks in shallow groundwater systems: A simple analytical approach 

De Vries, J.J.

Water is essential for life. It is required for other uses also such as irrigation, industry, and power development. Its demand is increasing with the increase in population and changes in life style, whereas the availability is practically constant. In India, water is available as precipitation which is concentrated largely in a few months of monsoon season and snowfall in the higher mountains for an equally short time window. Rainfall in monsoon months is also temporally and spatially random.

In the preface to the first edition of Construction Dewatering—New Methods and Applications, the stated intent of the book was to be a source of practical information for engineers and contractors who must contend with groundwater on construction projects. However, current ractice includes many methods besides straightforward dewatering. The content and new title, Construction Dewatering and Groundwater Control, of this third edition reflect this.

This book provides a detailed description of how Python can be used to give insight into the flow of groundwater based on analytic solutions. Starting with simple problems to illustrate the basic principles, complexity is added step by step to show how one-dimensional and twodimensional models of one or two aquifers can be implemented. Steady and transient flow problems are discussed in confined, semi-confined, and unconfined aquifers that may include wells, rivers, and areal recharge. Special consideration is given to coastal aquifers, including the effect of tides and the simulation of interface flow.

Application of Python allows for compact and readable code, and quick visualization of the solutions. Python scripts are provided to reproduce all results. The scripts are also available online so that they can be altered to meet site-specific conditions. This book is intended both as training material for the next generation of university students and as a useful resource for practitioners. A primer is included for those who are new to Python or as a refresher for existing users.

Well test analysis is one of the cornerstones of reservoir analysis, as it is only through the wells that we ever have the opportunity to make direct contact with the reservoir. Nonetheless, the reservoir parameters of importance to us are not measurable directly, hence the need to make an indirect interpretation of pressure and flow rate transients in the process we call well test analysis. The need to solve the inverse problems inherent in well test analysis makes the field one of the most intricate mathematically, while still dependent intimately on the practical characteristics and accuracy of the pressure measurements themselves.

This book deals with image-processing problems that arise in the process of automating some aspects of well log analysis. Each problem is first described in log analysis terms - that is, what task is performed by a log analyst and how it is accomplished in manual processing. Then algorithms for automating each function are presented and their meanings from the point of view of log analysis and image processing are explained. The term image processing is understood here, in its broadest sense, as any processing of any images.
