This book offers a comprehensive overview of the models and methods employed in the rapidly advancing field of numerical ocean circulation modeling. For those new to the field, concise reviews of the equations of oceanic motion, sub-grid-scale parameterization and numerical approximation techniques are presented. The extensive list of references make this book a valuable text for both graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in the marine sciences and in related fields, such as meteorology, climate and coupled biogeochemical modeling.
