Sustainable Natural Resource Management:For Scientists and Engineers
Daniel R. Lynch(Author Editorial Reviews Book Description This book uses applied mathematics familiar to undergraduate engineers and scientists to examine natural resource management and its role in framing sustainability. Renewable and nonrenewable resources are covered, along with living and sterile resources. Examples and applications are drawn from petroleum, fisheries, and water resources. Each chapter contains problems illustrating the material. Simple programs in commonly available packages (Excel, MATLAB) support the text. The material is a natural prelude to more advanced study in ecology, conservation, and population dynamics, as well as engineering and science. About the Author Daniel R. Lynch is the MacLean Professor of Engineering Sciences at Dartmouth College and Adjunct Scientist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Through the 1990s he served on the Executive Committee of the US GLOBEC Northwest Atlantic Program and co-founded the Gordon Research Conference in Coastal Ocean Modeling. He has published extensively on finite element methods in coastal oceanography and is co-editor of the AGU volume Quantitative Skill Assessment for Coastal Ocean Models and a related volume Skill Assessment for Coupled Physical-Biological Models of Marine Systems published as a special volume of the Joual of Marine Systems. In 2004 he wrote a graduate textbook titled Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations for Environmental Scientists and Engineers:A First Practical Course. At Dartmouth's Thayer School Dr Lynch developed the Numerical Methods Laboratory around the theme of interdisciplinary computational engineering. He pursues research at the intersection of advanced computation and large-scale environmental simulation. Current investigations focus on sustainability, natural resources, and professional education.
