An Open Access overview of physical processes that generate instability in geophysical systems. It covers classical analytical approaches together with numerical methods for quick prediction of stability in a system. Including exercises and MATLAB coding examples, it can be used for self-study or advanced courses in the environmental sciences.
Preface; Part I. Normal Mode Instabilities: 1. Preliminaries; 2. Convective instability; 3. Instabilities of a parallel shear flow; 4. Parallel shear flow: the effects of stratification; 5. Parallel shear flow: the effects of viscosity; 6. Synthesis: viscous, diffusive, inhomogeneous, parallel shear flow; 7. Nonparallel flow: instabilities of a cylindrical vortex; 8. Instability in a rotating environment; 9. Convective instability in complex fluids; 10. Summary; Part II. The View Ahead: 11. Beyond normal modes; 12. Instability and turbulence; 13. Refining the numerical methods; Appendix A. Homework exercises; Appendix B. Projects; List of illustrations; List of tables; References; Index.
