Large-scale inhomogeneous thermodynamics : and application for atmospheric energetics /

Annotation There are large-scale fluid systems in the gravity field, such as the Earth's atmosphere and oceans, which posses some features different from those of classical thermodynamic systems. For example, the oceans and atmosphere possess in homogeneous melt equilibrium states with the same...
