Variational Formulation of Fluid and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics | 1:a upplagan

Emphasizes a subject matter of interdisciplinary interest for meteorology, oceanography, physics and applied mathematics

Provides a detailed derivation of the equations of motion from conserved quantities and from system symmetries

Focuses in particular on the analysis and consequences of particle relabeling symmetry

Applies results to different approximations, such as the semi-geostrophic equations, and different relations, such as the conservation of wave activity
