Topographic Effects in Ocean Currents presents the hydrodynamic fundamentals of ocean current theory taking into account the bottom topography. It described the structures of ocean currents over underwater ridges, seamounts, hollows and around islands. It expounds results of theoretical and experimental studies of the dynamics of topographic eddies in the ocean. New phenomena such as secondary toroidal vortices, chaotic advection and associated mixing processes and transport of passive particles over seamounts are discussed. The book includes results of numerical modeling of the evolution of vortices in areas with seamounts in stationary and tidal currents by the Contour Dynamics Method.
Valery Zyryanov is Doctor of Physics and Mathematics, Professor in Physics of Atmosphere and Hydrosphere. He published more then 95 scientific articles and 2 monographs. He is the author of the article 2.3.3.1. "Physical Properties of Sea Water Including Its Three Phases" in Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS). He is Editor-in-Chief of the Journal "Water Resources". During twenty eight years he is the Head of Laboratory of fluid dynamics in IWP RAS. He lectures hydrodynamics of rotational stratified fluid in Physical Faculty of Moscow State University "Lomonosov". His monograph "The Steady Ocean Current Theory" (1985, Leningrad, Gidrometeoizdat) presents the mathematical fundamentals of the steady ocean current theory with consideration of the bottom relief. The theory of ocean currents over ridges, seamounts and around islands is described . His monograph "Topographic Eddies in Sea Current Dynamics" (1995, Moscow) expounds results of theoretical and experimental studies of the dynamics of eddies above seamounts in oceans and seas.
