This book is intended for those who have already learned to read Arabic but are still struggling with the basics of Arabic grammar. The book moves from the very simple to the very complex, and includes examples and exercises in each chapter to reinforce learning. The key to the exercises is found in the back of the book. The book is difficult to find, as it was published at the Defense Language Institute. A free non-searchable PDF version is available through this site, and a searchable PDF is also available for purchase.

This seminar is intended to help students in the MIT/Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Joint Program develop a broader perspective on their thesis research by considering some aspects of science in the large. The first part of the course challenges students to develop a thoughtful view towards major questions in science that can be incorporated in their own research process, and that will help them articulate research findings. The second part of the course emphasizes science as a social process and the important roles of written and oral communication. This course is offered through The MIT/WHOI Joint Program. The MIT/WHOI Joint Program is one of the premier marine science graduate programs in the world. It draws on the complementary strengths and approaches of two great institutions: the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI).

This resource presents a collection of essays developed from the author’s experience teaching the course Fluid Dynamics of the Atmosphere and Ocean, offered to graduate students entering the MIT/WHOI Joint Program in Oceanography. The collection includes the following three essays: Essay 1: Lagrangian and Eulerian Representations of Fluid Flow (revised and expanded in 2024)
Part 1: Kinematics and the Equations of Motion Part 2: Advection of Parcels and Fields
Essay 2: Dimensional Analysis of Models and Data Sets: Similarity Solutions and Scaling Analysis Essay 3: A Coriolis Tutorial (revised and expanded in 2023)
Part 1: The Coriolis Force, Inertial and Geostrophic Motion Part 2: A Rotating Shallow Water Model and Geostrophic Adjustment Part 3: Beta Effects and Western Propagation Part 4: Wind-Driven Ocean Circulation and the Sverdrup Relation Part 5: On the Seasonally-Varying Circulation of the Arabian Sea
The goal of this resource is to help each student master the concepts and mathematical tools that make up the foundation of classical and geophysical fluid dynamics. These essays treat these topics in considerably greater depth than a comprehensive fluids textbook can afford, and they are accompanied by data files (MATLAB® and Fortran) to allow some application and experimentation. They should be suitable for self-study.
