Stochastic models in geosystems

This volume contains edited proceedings of a workshop on Stochastic Models in Geosystems held at the Institute for Mathematics and Its Applications at the University of Minnesota. The authors represent a broad interdisciplinary spectrum including mathematics, statistics, physics, geophysics, astrophysics, atmospheric physics, fluid mechanics, seismology, and oceanography. The common underlying theme was stochastic modeling of geophysical phenomena and papers appearing in this volume reflect a number of research directions that are currently pursued in these areas.
