Description for Air-Sea Exchange
Hardback. Introduces a multi-disciplinary approach to extend an understanding of air-sea interaction, where the atmospheric boundary layer, ocean mixed layer dynamics, and surface are collectively treated with their physical, chemical and biological components. This book is suitable for boundary layer modellers, climate dynamicists, and geophysicists. Editor(s): Geernaert, G. L. Series: Atmospheric and Oceanographic Sciences Library. Num Pages: 578 pages, biography. BIC Classification: RBG; RBKC; RBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 33. Weight in Grams: 1006.
During the 1980's a wealth of information was reported from field and laboratory experiments in order to validate andlor modify various aspects of the surface layer Monin-Obukhov (M-O) similarity theory for use over the sea, and to introduce and test new concepts related to high resolution flux magnitudes and variabilities. For example, data from various field experiments conducted on the North Sea, Lake Ontario, and the Atlantic experiments, among others, yielded information on the dependence of the flux coefficients on wave state. In all field projects, the usual criteria for satisfying M-O similarity were applied. The assumptions of stationarity and ... Read more

Reviews for Air-Sea Exchange
`I wholeheartedly recommend this book to all students and researchers of air-sea interaction. It is an up-to-date, honest evaluation of the status of the field at the end of the 1990s. ...it was a joy for me to read because of the many intelligent discussions and innovative explanations of complex phenomena. It is also a ... Read more
