Download or read book Ocean Atmosphere Interaction and Climate Modeling written by Boris A. Kagan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-09 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to acquaint readers with the recent advances in experimental and theoretical investigations of ocean-atmosphere interactions, a rapidly developing field in earth sciences. Particular attention is paid to the scope and perspectives for satellite measurements and mathematical modeling. Current approaches to the construction of coupled ocean-atmosphere models (from the simplest one-dimensional to comprehensive three-dimensional ones) for the solution of key problems in climate theory are discussed in detail. Field measurements and the results of numerical climate simulations are presented and help to explain climate variability that arises from various natural and anthropogenic factors.
