Topics treated in the first part of the book include:
Thermogravitational convection in rotating fluids (from laminar to turbulent states);
Stably stratified and unstratified shear flows;
Barotropic and baroclinic instabilities;
Rossby waves and Centrifugally-driven convection;
Potential Vorticity, Quasi-Geostrophic Theory and related theorems;
The dynamics of interacting vortices, interacting waves and mixed (hybrid) vortex-wave states;
Geostrophic Turbulence and planetary patterns.
The second part is entirely devoted to phenomena of practical interest, i.e. subjects relevant to the realms of industry and technology, among them:
Surface-tension-driven convection in rotating fluids;
Differential-rotation-driven (forced) flows;
Crystal Growth from the melt of oxide or semiconductor materials;
Directional solidification;
Rotating Machinery;
