It is now widely accepted that human activities are inducing global
climatic change. The oceans are an integral and important part of
the global climate system. They store immense amounts of heat and
moisture, moderating change but prolonging it once change
commences. The oceans also store vast amounts of carbon dioxide,
perhaps regulating greenhouse warming driven by human activity.
This book examines the complex and multi-faceted interaction
between the oceans and the atmosphere (and hence the climate),
describing how physical, biological and chemical processes combine
in the oceans to affect climatic change in the past, present and
future. This textbook introduces these multi-disciplinary controls,
and is intended as a course-book for undergraduates studying earth
and environmental sciences, oceanography, meteorology and
climatology, and may also be interest for students and teachers of
geography, physics, chemistry and biology.
