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...
Ocean Modeling in an Eddying Regime
Wiley 2013; US$ 124.00Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series . This monograph is the first to survey progress in realistic simulation in a strongly eddying regime made possible by recent increases in computational capability. Its contributors comprise the leading researchers in this important and constantly evolving field.... more...
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...
Surface Ocean
Wiley 2013; US$ 124.00Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series . The focus of Surface Ocean: Lower Atmosphere Processes is biogeochemical interactions between the surface ocean and the lower atmosphere. This volume is an outgrowth of the Surface Ocean-Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS) Summer School. The volume is designed... more...
Antarctic Subglacial Aquatic Environments
Wiley 2013; US$ 110.00Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series . Antarctic Subglacial Aquatic Environments is the first volume on this important and fascinating subject. With its underlying theme of bridging existing knowledge to future research, it is a benchmark in the history of subglacial lake exploration and study,... more...
Instrumentation and Metrology in Oceanography
Wiley 2013; US$ 165.00Through research, physical oceanography aims to solve the numerous problems stated by thermal, optical and dynamical properties of the oceans. Instrumentation and Metrology in Physical Oceanography describes the means used in oceanography to determine physical properties of the oceans by medium of in situ measurements. ... more...
Traveling the 38th Parallel
University of California Press 2013; US$ 29.95Between extremes of climate farther north and south, the 38th North parallel line marks a temperate, middle latitude where human societies have thrived since the beginning of civilization. It divides North and South Korea, passes through Athens and San Francisco, and bisects Mono Lake in the eastern Sierra Nevada, where authors David and Janet Carle... more...
Tsunamis
C.H. Beck 2013; US$ 8.61Hauptbeschreibung Tsunamis haben nicht nur zu Weihnachten 2004 Hunderttausenden Menschen das Leben gekostet. Linda Maria Koldau erklärt, wie immer wieder Riesenwellen durch unterseeische Erdbeben und Hangrutschungen, Vulkanausbrüche und Meteoriteneinschläge entstehen, und schildert spannend die größten Tsunamis der Weltgeschichte: von der Storegga-Rutschung... more...
Managing Britain's Marine and Coastal Environment
Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 39.95Britain's maritime tradition is well documented. The management of its marine and coastal environment is therefore of tantamount importance, and offers lessons for other nations across the world. The beginning of the new millennium marks a major, long-term turning point in the historical development of Britain's maritime interest discernible by continued... more...
The Indian Ocean
Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 41.95In this stimulating and authoritative overview, Michael Pearson reverses the traditional angle of maritime history and looks from the sea to its shores - its impact on the land through trade, naval power, travel and scientific exploration. This vast ocean, both connecting and separating nations, has shaped many countries' cultures and ideologies through... more...
