L. : Hydrometeoizdat, 1977 - 294 s. The book is devoted to various aspects of the problem of mathematical modeling of ocean tides. It focuses on general ideas and principles for describing the phenomenon. The book begins with a presentation of the fundamental provisions of the hydrodynamic theory of tides. Then the mathematical questions of the theory of equations of tidal dynamics and numerical methods of their solution are considered.. Finally, the possibilities of reproduction using existing models of the global tidal picture, the vertical structure of the bottom boundary layer and the internal waves of the tidal period are discussed. The book can be useful to specialists in ocean dynamics, as well as hydrodynamics and mathematicians interested in the problems of geophysics. Foreword by .
