  • Land Surface — Atmosphere Interactions for Climate Modeling

    Observations, Models and Analysis

    Edited by E.F. Wood ...
    It is well known that the interactions between land surfaces and the atmosphere, and the resulting exchanges in water and energy have a tremendous affect on climate. The inadequate representation of land-atmosphere interactions is a major weakness in current climate models, and is providing the motivation for the HAPEX and ISLSCP experiments as well as the proposed Global Energy and Water ...

  • Nonlinear and Stochastic Climate Dynamics

    Edited by Christian L. E. Franzke, Terence J. O'Kane ...
    It is now widely recognized that the climate system is governed by nonlinear, multi-scale processes, whereby memory effects and stochastic forcing by fast processes, such as weather and convective systems, can induce regime behavior. Motivated by present difficulties in understanding the climate system and to aid the improvement of numerical weather and climate models, this book gathers ... Read more
