- Climate and mathematics -- Earth's energy budget -- Oceans and climate -- Dynamical systems -- Bifurcation theory -- Stommel's box model -- Lorenz equations -- Climate and statistics -- Regression analysis -- Mauna Loa CO2 data -- Fourier transforms -- Zonal energy budget -- Atmosphere and climate -- Hydrodynamics -- Climate models -- El Niño, southern oscillation -- Cryosphere and climate -- Biogeochemistry -- Extreme events -- Data assimilation.
- Mathematics and Climate is a timely textbook with wide appeal. It is aimed at students and researchers in mathematics and statistics who are interested in current issues of climate science, as well as at climate scientists who wish to become familiar with qualitative and quantitative methods of mathematics and statistics. The authors emphasize conceptual models that capture important aspects of Earth's climate system and present the mathematical and statistical techniques that can be applied to their analysis. Topics from climate science include the Earth s energy balance, temperature distribution, ocean circulation patterns such as El Niño Southern Oscillation, ice caps and glaciation periods, the carbon cycle, and the biological pump. Among the mathematical and statistical techniques presented in the text are dynamical systems and bifurcation theory, Fourier analysis, conservation laws, regression analysis, and extreme value theory.
