"The Atmosphere and Ocean" is a fully revised and updated student
friendly physical introduction to the atmosphere and ocean. Now in
its Third Edition, the book continues to provide students with an
accessible description of the atmosphere and ocean with emphasis on
their physical properties and inter-dependence.
Clearly structured throughout, the book demonstrates that the
atmosphere and ocean are both subject to the influence of the
earth's rotation and therefore they have a common dynamical basis.
The author clearly demonstrates the fundamental differences between
the two environments and provides the reader with a much better
understanding of the atmosphere and the ocean and an appreciation
of their closest interactive relationship. There have been many
developments in the field over the past ten years and this latest
edition of a highly successful textbook brings together new
material on the ocean-atmosphere system and climate, the observed
circulation of the atmosphere and ocean and radiation in the
atmosphere and ocean.Fully revised and updated 3rd Edition of
student friendly physical introduction to the atmosphere and ocean.
Now includes new chapters on observed circulation of the atmosphere
and ocean, energy flows in the ocean atmosphere system, modeling
the ocean and atmosphere, the ocean atmosphere system and climate.
Well structured and written in an authoritative yet accessible
style suitable for 2nd and 3rd year students taking courses in
meteorology, oceanography and related Earth Sciences or as an
introduction for graduate students. Emphasis placed on physical
properties and inter-dependence of the ocean and climate. Part of
the RMetS (Royal Meteorological Society) book series, "Advancing
