Teresė Leonavičienė, Jevgenijus Kirjackis, Edita Baltrėnaitė–Gedienė „Modelling of Environmental Processes and Management“ As there is an increasing discussion about climate change and reducing environmental pollution, and as sustainable solutions are sought in various fields, attention turns to educational institutions and universities. It is hoped that young people who have gained the appropriate education will be able to seek solutions in the field of environmental protection, so that actions taken in the near future will pave the way for new technologies and contribute to the preservation of the entire ecosystem. This textbook invites readers to become acquainted with environmental processes and to investigate them using the possibilities of mathematical modeling. It integrates the sciences of mathematics and environmental engineering. Employing classical differential equation theory and the most commonly used mathematical models, and based on the works of various authors, we offer the reader an introduction to a universal tool for environmental research – mathematical modeling. Since the processes occurring in our environment are influenced by many factors of different nature, it is often difficult to find a model that can accurately predict the course of a particular process. However, even in such cases, by using computer programs and applying numerical methods, we can perform a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the system of interest and predict the course of the process, as well as manage the parameters influencing it. This textbook is intended for students of environmental engineering and environmental protection study programs who wish to acquire knowledge and skills in mathematical modeling and to perform virtual experiments. It can also be used by students of other study programs who are interested in applied tasks and their solutions. eBook edition >>> * VILNIUS TECH extends complimentary access to its entire library of e-books to members within the university community.
