The NATO Advanced Study Institute "Flow and Transport Processes in
Complex Obstructed Geometries: from cities and vegetative canopies
to engineering problems" was held in Kyiv, Ukraine in the period of
May 4-15, 2004. This book based on the papers presented there
provides an overview of this new area in fluid mechanics and its
environmental applications.
Contents
Preface
Variety of problems associated with Canopies, or EPRs
Discrete and continuum models of flow and dispersion through
canopies
Easily Penetrable Roughnesses of different structures
Observation and simulation of flow in vegetation canopies
Turbulent flow in canopies on complex topography and the effects of
stable stratification
Transport in aquatic canopies
Vorticity annihilation and inviscid blocking in multibody flows
Fires in porous media: natural and urban canopies
Urban air flow researches for air pollution, emergency preparedness
and urban weather prediction

Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, New York, 2002, 410 pp. - ISBN-13 978-0-521-81210-8 The critical role of trace gases in global atmospheric change makes an improved understanding of these gases imperative. Measurements of the distributions of these gases in space and time provide important information, but the interpretation of this information often involves ill-conditioned model inversions. Various techniques have therefore been developed...

University of Oxford, UK, World Scientific Publ., Singapore, London, 2001, 507 pp. - ISBN 981-02-4566-1 Atmospheric science involves three main sub-disciplines: radiation, chemistry, and dynamics. Many books have been written about each of these, and non-LTE (we shall come in a moment to what it means) plays a part in most of them. However, no book exists which deals primarily with non-LTE, and this has become a serious omission. It is now realis...
