Earthquake dynamics is one of the most pluridisciplinary endeavors in Earth Science, encompassing most disciplines in Geology, Geophysics, Rock Mechanics, and Fracture Mechanics. These studies range from field observations of faults and seismic ruptures through experimental rupture mechanics, fracture mechanics, and seismic radiation from earthquake faulting. Such a broad field attracts researchers from many horizons, using different scientific approaches and diverse technical experiences. The collection of papers selected by Eiichi Fukuyama and his colleagues is a very ample cross-section of these different approaches, ranging from field observations of faulting— both recent and old—to the most advanced techniques for simulating seismic ruptures in the laboratory and in computers, as well as the use of seismic data to constrain these models. These different approaches are required in order to understand and eventually use this information for the scientific prediction of ground motion and, perhaps one day, predicting earthquakes.

This text grew out of notes for a course taught to graduate students in physical oceanography at the College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences at Oregon State University. The students are typically in their second year of graduate school, having passed introductory courses in theoretical physical oceanography. This is the background assumed for the course. Most of the students at this point have seen some numerical analysis. The course, and hence this text, is intended for all students of physical oceanography. Major emphasis is on those features that distinguish models of the ocean from other models in computational fluid mechanics. The intent is to examine ocean models critically, and determine what they do well and what they do poorly. We will ask when we can be confident that the model reflects nature, and when we can say that it is likely that we are looking at a feature of the model itself.

Настоящий Атлас является результатом международного сотрудничества специа- листов нескольких организаций, занимающихся исследованием климатической систе- мы морей северной части Тихого океана.
Атлас содержит месячные климатические карты температуры, солёности и кисло- рода на поверхности и стандартных горизонтах для Берингова, Охотского и Японского морей. Для различных районов этих морей приводятся годовые климатические циклы изменения температуры, солёности и кислорода на различных горизонтах, а также се- зонные графики вертикальных изменений этих параметров. Для каждого из морей пос- троены временные серии годовых аномалий температуры, солёности и кислорода за 54 года (1950-2003). Первичные данные, которые использовались в настоящей работе, доступны без ограничений через интернет в ASCII и Excel форматах. В состав насто- ящего Атласа включены в электронном формате редкие книги и статьи по истории исследований морей северной части Тихого океана, а также фотографии, дающие представление о природе региона и его истории.

This work represents the essence of nearly 16 years of work in scientific computing for ocean and atmospheric modeling. This journey started at Alfred- Wegener-Institute for Polar and Marine Research in Bremerhaven, Germany, where – as a post graduate – I was assigned to optimize multi-grid solvers for elliptic partial differential equations evolving from ocean modeling. I am lucky and grateful that I had the chance to go all that way, to have the opportunity to explore the subject from many different angles, to have wonderful teachers and colleagues, and to have the chance to work and visit such exquisit places as the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, USA, the Frontier Research System for Global Change at the Yokohama Institute for Earth Science (Earth Simulator) in Yokohama, Japan, the Max-Planck- Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg, Germany, the aforementioned Alfred- Wegener-Institute for Polar and Marine Research in Bremerhaven and Potsdam, Germany, the Technische Universit?at M?unchen in Garching, Germany, the Fields Institute in Toronto, Canada, the Naval Research Laboratory in Monterey, California, USA, the Department of Informatics at the University of Bergen, Norway and the Centre for Mathematical Sciences at the University of Cambridge, UK, to name only the most influential ones.

The Encyclopedia of Ocean Sciences is the most current, authoritative, and comprehensive resource on the science of the oceans. This ambitious work includes contributions from leading scientists around the world on the physical processes that drive the oceans and the chemical, biological, and geological disciplines. The Encyclopedia also covers ancillary topics such as ocean technology, law of the oceans, global programs, marine policy, the use of the oceans for food and energy, and the impact of pollution and climate changes. The many different methods used to study the oceans are covered, from ship-based systems to satellite remote sensing. Users will enjoy easy access to more than 400 articles, each approximately 3000-4000 words in length with further reading lists and extensive cross referencing. Each article provides comprehensive coverage of a particular topic, and is designed for a wide audience of students, academics, researchers, and professionals. The articles are written at a level that allows undergraduate students to understand the material, while providing active researchers with the latest technical information.

The study of the Earth’s deep interior may be loosely defined as the study of those parts of the Earth that lie more than a thousand kilometres below the surface. These regions are obscured from direct view, but nevertheless a wealth of information about the deep interior has accumulated. Seismology, geomagnetism, the monitoring of the Earth’s rotation, and accurate measurements of the gravity field have all played a role in this development. This observational knowledge has been supplemented by experiments, some conducted in extreme conditions of pressure and temperature. Theoreticians are also involved in unravelling the mysteries of the Earth’s deep interior, both in building numerical models and in studying high-pressure physics. All this activity has brought together a multidisciplinary team of scientists, which was formalized into the SEDI (Study of the Earth’s Deep Interior) organization in 1987.

Examining the treatment in meteorological works of thermodynamical problems involving the ideas of surface tension and of adsorption, one is struck by the fact that such questions are almost always dealt with in a fragmentary manner. The reader is referred to various works which he is recommended to study in order to understand the statements presented. The multiplicity of sources on which it is desirable to draw leads him to feel the need for a general treatment, and to wish for a single account uniting in a coherent manner the variousproblems of a similar nature involving the thermodynamics of capillarity. Only an account of this kind enables one to get to the root of problems, to perceive what physical hypotheses are required in the process, and to judge the consistency or inconsistency of various theories.
