Originally published in Russian in 2006, this is the first English
translation of this important book on paleoceanography and
paleoclimatology. Its initial publication was followed by a surge
of interest in this subject prompting the author to revise and
translate her original work. In the book, she successfully
summarizes her own research over recent years and compiles an
overview of up-to-date knowledge on past ocean circulation. The key
topics include: - Modern thermohaline circulation and main stages
of its development during the Cenozoic - Methods and proxies of
paleoceanographic reconstruction - Variability of the meridional
overturning circulation and paleoceanographic events in the North
Atlantic during the last climatic cycle - Influence of the global
thermohaline circulation on paleoceanographic events in the
Eurasian Arctic seas, the Northern Indian Ocean, and the South
China Sea - The role of the thermohaline circulation in global
teleconnections in the Antarctic, Eurasian Arctic, northern Pacific
and low latitudes Indo-Pacific. Comprehensive investigation of
hundreds of international publications and her own results,
convinced the author that the global thermohaline circulation
controls the remote teleconnections on millennial-scale and partly
on centennial-scale, while short-term climate signals are mainly
transferred by the atmosphere. This revised and extended English
edition provides the latest unpublished data, new figures and
modeling results. The extensive reference list contains more than
100 publications and 140 new references.
