Therefore, identifying key phenomena, understanding their relative importance, and establishing causal relationships between them is no trivial task. Analysis of primitive variables (e.g., velocity components, pressure, temperature, concentration) is not always conducive to the most fruitful interpretations. Examining auxiliary variables introduced for diagnostic purposes is an option worth considering. In this respect, tracer and timescale methods are proving to be very effective. Such methods can help address questions such as, "where does a fluid-born dissolved or particulate substance come from and where will it go?" or, "how fast are the transport and reaction phenomena controlling the appearance and disappearance such substances?" These issues have been dealt with since the 19th century, essentially by means of ad hoc approaches. However, over the past three decades, methods resting on solid theoretical foundations have been developed, which permit the evaluation of tracer concentrations and diagnostic timescales (age, residence/exposure time, etc.) across space and time and using numerical models and field data. This book comprises research and review articles, introducing state-of-the-art diagnostic theories and their applications to domains ranging from shallow human-made reservoirs to lakes, river networks, marine domains, and subsurface flows 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 610 $aresidence time 610 $aThree Gorges Reservoir 610 $atributary bay 610 $adensity current 610 $awater level regulation 610 $amarina 610 $awater renewal 610 $atransport timescales 610 $areturn-flow 610 $amacro-tidal 610 $awind influence 610 $afloating structures 610 $aSan Francisco Estuary 610 $aSacramento-San Joaquin Delta 610 $awater age 610 $atransport time scales 610 $ahydrodynamic model 610 $atidal hydrodynamics 610 $astable isotopes 610 $areactive tracers 610 $atailor-made tracer design 610 $ahydrogeological tracer test 610 $akinetics 610 $apartitioning 610 $aMahakam Delta 610 $aage 610 $aexposure time 610 $areturn coefficient 610 $aCART 610 $asource water fingerprinting 610 $afloodplain 610 $aturbulence 610 $aADCP measurement 610 $awave bias 610 $aReynolds stress 610 $atransport process 610 $apassive tracers 610 $aterrestrial dissolved substances 610 $aPearl River Estuary 610 $ashallow lake 610 $ameteorological influence 610 $asub-basins 610 $aDelft3D 610 $apartial differential equations 610 $aboundary conditions 610 $ageophysical and environmental fluid flows 610 $areactive transport 610 $ainterpretation methods 610 $adiagnostic timescales 610 $aage distribution function 610 $aradionuclide 610 $atracer 610 $adata collection 610 $aantimony 125 (125Sb) 610 $atritium (3H) 610 $adispersion 610 $amodeling 610 $aEnglish Channel 610 $aNorth Sea 610 $aBiscay Bay 610 $atimescale 610 $atransport 610 $ahydrodynamic 610 $aecological 610 $abiogeochemical 610 $acoastal 610 $aestuary 610 $aflushing time 610 $ashallow reservoir 610 $anumerical modeling 610 $aLagrangian transport modelling 610 $acoupled wave-ocean models 610 $aocean drifters 610 $awave-induced processes 610 $amodel skills 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 700 $aDeleersnijder$b Eric$4edt$01270893 702 $aKoszalka$b Inga Monika$4edt 702 $aLucas$b Lisa V$4edt 702 $aDeleersnijder$b Eric$4oth 702 $aKoszalka$b Inga Monika$4oth 702 $aLucas$b Lisa V$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910576873603321 996 $aTracer and Timescale Methods for Passive and Reactive Transport in Fluid Flows$93035283 997 $aUNINA
