Rezensionen

From the reviews: "Air-Ice-Ocean Interaction will be a valuable reference for Artic and Antarctic researchers-be they observers, numerical modelers, or theoreticians. It will also be an excellent resource for the Earth sciences graduate students. ... His monograph would make a fine graduate-level companion text ... . Air-Ice-Ocean Interaction will provide students and researchers ... with the theoretical principles needed for rigorous investigations of ongoing and future polar climate processes and change." (Mary-Louise Timmermans, Physics Today, June, 2009)
