Gravity Currents: In the Environment and the Laboratory
"This book is well written and thoughtfully motivated and has clear explanations.  Its great strength is in the physical insight it provides into many commonly occurring flows and phenomena."   Physics Today"The scope of the book is broad, and covers gravity currents in the atmospheric, oceanographic, environmental, and earth sciences...the broadest and most useful collection of material in the field.  It remains not only an essential reference for anyone in any related discipline, but also absorbing and informative read for the general reader."   Géographie Physique Et Quaternaire"I will use this book as an encyclopedia or dictionary via the extensive index.  In general, I would recommend it to those interested in a well written description of the surrounding physical world and the many manifestations of gravity currents."    The Leading Edge"This book with its great variety of examples from the atmosphere, rivers and oceans and its many photos and lucid illustrations is wonderful to look at and highly pleasing to read."
