[.uk] The Arctic Climate System

Book Description:
The Arctic can be viewed as an integrated system, characterized by intimate couplings between its atmosphere, ocean and land, linked in turn to the larger global system. This comprehensive, up-to-date assessment begins by outlining early Arctic exploration and the growth of modern research. Reviews of recent field studies and past Arctic climates set the stage for detailed discussion of recent climate variability and trends, and projected future states. The Arctic Climate System provides an accessible overview of the subject for researchers and advanced students in a wide range of disciplines.
