Coupled atmosphere-ocean models are at the core of numerical
climate models. There is an extraordinarily broad class of coupled
atmosphere-ocean models ranging from sets of equations that can be
solved analytically to highly detailed representations of Nature
requiring the most advanced computers for execution. The models are
applied to subjects including the conceptual understanding of
Earth's climate, predictions that support human activities in a
variable climate, and projections aimed to prepare society for
climate change. The present book fills a void in the current
literature by presenting a basic and yet rigorous treatment of how
the models of the atmosphere and the ocean are put together into a
coupled system. The text of the book is divided into chapters
organized according to complexity of the components that are
coupled. Two full chapters are dedicated to current efforts on the
development of generalist couplers and coupling methodologies all
over the world.
