Predicting changes of the free surface in rivers, lakes, estuaries, and the ocean is a problem directly affecting the design of structures that control surface waters, and planning for the allocation of fresh-water resources in a sustainable manner. Environmental Fluid Mechanics: Mass Transport and Control introduces a wide range of environmental fluid flows, such as water waves, land runoff, channel flow, and effluent discharge. The goal of this book is to provide systematic analysis tools and basic skills for study fluid mechanics in natural and constructed environmental flows.

  • Determine the transfer of solute mass through the air-water interface
  • Assess the impact of free shear flow in the environment, and quantify the mixing mechanisms in turbulent jets and wakes
  • Predict fate and transport of contaminants in stratified lakes and estuaries
  • Seek optimal design techniques for waste disposal in surface waters
  • Assess the impact of climate change on mixing and dispersion in stratified water bodies
