Magma to Microbe
Wiley 2013; US$ 124.00Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series . Hydrothermal systems at oceanic spreading centers reflect the complex interactions among transport, cooling and crystallization of magma, fluid circulation in the crust, tectonic processes, water-rock interaction, and the utilization of hydrothermal fluids as... more...
Ocean Circulation
Wiley 2013; US$ 120.00Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series . The ocean's meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is a key factor in climate change. The Atlantic MOC, in particular, is believed to play an active role in the regional and global climate variability. It is associated with the recent debate on rapid climate... more...
Numerical Modeling of Ocean Circulation
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 76.00Describes ocean models for graduate students and researchers in oceanography, geophysics, climatology and atmospheric science. more...
An Introduction to Ocean Turbulence
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 60.00An introductory undergraduate textbook on ocean turbulence for courses in physical oceanography. more...
The Global Thermohaline Paleocirculation
Springer 2009; US$ 139.99Describes what is known about the global thermohaline circulation, interaction with climate, long and short-term variability through the last glacial-interglacial cycle. This work presents results of the author's 10 years high-resolution paleoceanographic research in low and high latitudes. more...
The Turbulent Ocean
Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 96.00The Turbulent Ocean describes the nature and causes of turbulent motion within lakes, oceans and seas - from shoreline to abyssal depths. It draws upon information from field observations and laboratory experiments. It is an excellent course text for senior undergraduate and graduate students, and a general overview for researchers. more...
Interhemispheric Water Exchange in the Atlantic Ocean
Elsevier Science 2003; US$ 204.00Recent results from modeling and observational studies demonstrate that the tropical Atlantic is a critical region for processes that maintain the meridional overturning circulation, such as cross-equatorial exchanges, and for sea surface temperature variability that impacts on climate variability of the coupled tropical ocean/atmosphere system. ... more...
Ocean Circulation
Elsevier Science 2001; US$ 52.95This second edition retains the general structure of the first edition, but has been updated in the light of recent oceanographic research, and improved as a teaching text on the basis of feedback from past students and other readers. Notable additions include new sections addressing the topic of numerical modelling, and more discussion of natural... more...
Nonlinear Physical Oceanography
Springer 2007; US$ 99.99Applies the methodology of dynamical systems theory to investigate the physics of the global ocean circulation, such as the dynamics of the Gulf Stream separation and the El Nino/Southern Oscillation phenomenon. This work also deals with the numerical methods for applying bifurcation analysis to large dimensional dynamical systems. more...
Deep Convection and Deep Water Formation in the Oceans
Elsevier Science 1991; US$ 272.00This book contains articles presenting current knowledge about the formation and renewal of deep waters in the ocean. These articles were presented at an international workshop at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey in March 1990. It is the first book entirely devoted to the topic of deep water formation in which articles have been both selected... more...
