Aprašymas

It is now widely accepted that human activities are inducing global climatic change. The oceans are an integral part of the global climate system, storing heat and moisture, moderating change but prolonging it once change commences. The oceans also store carbon dioxide, perhaps regulating greenhouse warming driven by human activity. This comprehensive textbook examines the complex interaction between the oceans and climate by describing how physical, biological and chemical processes combine in the oceans to affect climatic change. It will prove an ideal course-book for undergraduates studying earth and environmental sciences, oceanography, meteorology and climatology.
