For the study of com plex systems, such as the environment, it has become an indispensable tool. But it is also a tool that is often misunderstood and misinterpreted. These dangers are particularly pronounced in the environmental sciences, an area of interest and concern not only to scientists, but also to the general public, the media, policy makers and powerful interest groups. We cannot experiment with our planet. The only quantitative tool available for the assessment of the impact of our actions today on the future environment and living conditions of later generations is numerical modeling. The better the general understanding of the potential and limitations of numerical models, the better the chances for a rational analysis and discussion of environmental problems and poli cies. But in addition to the more recent political issue of human impacts on the environment, numerical models play an important role for the forecasting of natural environmental variability, such as tides and storm surges or the weathcr, or for the interpretation of environmental changes in the past, such as the relation between the Late Maunder M | 出版日期 | Textbook 2004 | 关键词 | Climate; Meteorology; Ocean; Oceanography; Sciences; Tide; modeling; simulation; climate change | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-06381-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-05795-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-662-06381-1 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2004 |
