Ocean Dynamics and the Carbon Cycle. Principles and Mechanisms

Beschreibung

Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2011. Quarto, xii, 404 pages with numerous illustrations. Colour pictorial papered boards; an excellent copy. A 'multidisciplinary approach to understanding ocean circulation and how it drives and controls marine biogeochemistry and biological productivity at a global scale. Background chapters on ocean physics, chemistry and biology provide students with the tools to examine the range of large-scale physical and dynamic phenomena that control the ocean carbon cycle and its interaction with the atmosphere . observational data is integrated with basic physical theory to address cutting-edge research questions in ocean biogeochemistry. Simple theoretical models, data plots and schematic illustrations summarise key results and connect the physical theory to real observations. Advanced mathematics is provided in boxes and appendices' (rear cover). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 130164
