Description for Global Physical Climatology
Hardcover. Num Pages: 520 pages, Illustrated. BIC Classification: RBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 229 x 152. Weight in Grams: 1000.
Global Physical Climatology, Second Edition, provides an introduction to the science of climate and climate change that spans the atmosphere, ocean, and land surface, and the interactions among them. It begins with a basic introduction to the climate system, and then introduces the physics of the climate system, including the principles and processes that determine the structure and climate of the atmosphere, ocean, and land surface. More advanced topics apply the basic knowledge introduced to understanding natural variability of the climate in both the present and past, the sensitivity of climate to external forcing, explanations for the ...
