It also attempts to place the study of tides in a historical perspective. Starting with a general tutorial on tides, the theme of tides is approached in 9 chapters from many directions. They allow non-experts to pick up a physical intuition and a sense of orders of magnitude in the theory of tides. These carefully prepared lecture notes by leaders in the field include many illustrative figures and drawings. Some even offer a variety of simple back - of the - envelope problems.Lecture notes in physics ;861.TidesOcean circulationTides.Ocean circulation.551.464Mathis Stephane1753725Souchay Jean428898Tokieda Tadashi1968-1753726MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910130583103321Tides in astronomy and astrophysics4189706UNINA
