Books by Stephen Wiggins

This introduction to applied nonlinear dynamics and chaos places emphasis on teaching the techniques and ideas that will enable students to take specific dynamical systems and obtain some quantitative information about their behavior.

Written by a specialist in geophysical fluid dynamics and an applied mathematician, this book provides an accessible introduction to new methods for analysing Lagrangian motion in geophysical flows, and surveys research in geophysical fluid dynamics that makes use of them.
