This volume presents a survey of our state of knowledge of the
physical and dynamical processes involved in the Asian monsoon.
Although traditionally the main emphasis has been on the study of
the atmospheric component, it has long been known that the oceans
play a vitally important part in determining the occurrence of this
spectacular seasonal event. A scientific study of this phenomenon
involves a detailed investigation of the dynamical processes which
occur in both the atmosphere and the ocean, on timescales on up to
at least a year and on spatial scales from a few hundred kilometres
or so up to that of the global atmospheric and oceanic
circulations. The editors present a coherent survey of each of the
meteorological, oceanographic and hydrological aspects and of their
implications for weather forecasting and flood prediction. Monsoon
Dynamics is a timely survey of a dramatic meteorological phenomenon
which will interest meteorologists, climatologists and
geophysicists.
