Chirila, Gerrit Lohmann1st ed. 2015.Berlin, Heidelberg :Springer Berlin Heidelberg :Imprint: Springer,2015.1 online resource (268 p.)Description based upon print version of record.3-642-37008-X Includes bibliographical references.1 General concepts -- 2 Fortran Basics -- 3 Elements of software engineering -- 4 Applications -- More advanced techniques -- 5 More advanced techniques.This work provides a short "getting started" guide to Fortran 90/95. The main target audience consists of newcomers to the field of numerical computation within Earth system sciences (students, researchers or scientific programmers). Furthermore, readers accustomed to other programming languages may also benefit from this work, by discovering how some programming techniques they are familiar with map to Fortran 95. The main goal is to enable readers to quickly start using Fortran 95 for writing useful programs. It also introduces a gradual discussion of Input/Output facilities relevant for Earth system sciences, from the simplest ones to the more advanced netCDF library (which has become a de facto standard for handling the massive datasets used within Earth system sciences). While related works already treat these disciplines separately (each often providing much more information than needed by the beginning practitioner), the reader finds in this book a shorter guide which links them. Compared to other books, this work provides a much more compact view of the language, while also placing the language-elements in a more applied setting, by providing examples related to numerical computing and more advanced Input/Output facilities for Earth system sciences. Naturally, the coverage of the programming language is relatively shallow, since many details are skipped. However, many of these details can be learned gradually by the practitioner, after getting an overview and some practice with the language through this book.Physical geographyProgramming languages (Electronic computers)PhysicsComputer mathematicsEarth System Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35000Programming Languages, Compilers, Interpretershttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14037Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Computational Mathematics and Numerical Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M1400XPhysical geography.Programming languages (Electronic computers).Physics.Computer mathematics.Earth System Sciences.Programming Languages, Compilers, Interpreters.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Computational Mathematics and Numerical Analysis.005.13518530.155550Chirila Dragos Bauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1062813Lohmann Gerritauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299431903321Introduction to Modern Fortran for the Earth System Sciences2528643UNINA
