From the reviews: "The book is warmly commended. Graduates/advanced undergraduate students, engineers, and researchers in environmental fluid dynamics, will profit from the book. The bibliography provides an important guide for further reading. It is hard to think of anyone who is concerned with the role of fluids in environment, who will not gain by reading this book and having it available for reference."
