A Large Spectrum of Free Oscillations of the World Ocean
Springer 2008; US$ 84.99The ocean tides are the most prominent forced oscillations in the global ocean. Research showed that tides play an important role for the earth's climate system and they are of considerable interest for the post-processing of satellite data. To understand these oscillations it is substantial to determine and analyse the free oscillations. more...

Atmosphere-Ocean Interactions
WIT Press 2006; US$ 178.00The recent increase in levels of population and human development in coastal areas has led to a greater importance of understanding atmosphere-ocean interactions. Human activities that depend on the oceans require improvements in operational forecasts for marine weather and ocean conditions, and associated marine climate. This second volume on atmosphere-ocean... more...
