  • The South Atlantic in the Late Quaternary

    Reconstruction of Material Budgets and Current Systems

    Edited by Gerold Wefer, Stefan Mulitza, Volker Ratmeyer ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The South Atlantic plays a critical role in the couplingofoceanic processes between the Antarctic and the lower latitudes. The Antarctic Ocean, along with the adjacent southern seas, is of substantial importance for global climate and for the distributionofwater masses because itprovides large regions ofthe world ocean with intermediate and bottom waters. In contrast to the North Atlantic, the ... Read more

  • The South Atlantic

    Present and Past Circulation

    by Gerold Wefer, Wolfgang H. Berger, Gerold Siedler, David J. Webb ...
    As connecting link between the Antarctic and the North Atlantic, the South Atlantic plays an important role in the distribution of heat in the North Atlantic and in the biogeochemical budget of all oceans. Oceanographers and geologists as well as micropaleontologists and meteorologists will find a wealth of information in this ... Read more

  • Marine Science Frontiers for Europe

    Edited by Frank Lamy, Fauzi Mantoura, Gerold Wefer ...
    Europe is a continent with a high coast-to-surface ratio, and European seas encompass a broad range of settings and regimes. The sustainable development of living and non-living marine resources, the protection of the marine environment and the provision of marine-based services are critical to economic prosperity and to the quality of life of European citizens. Addressing these concerns, marine ... Read more

  • Use of Proxies in Paleoceanography

    Examples from the South Atlantic

    Edited by Gerhard Fischer, Gerold Wefer ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Paleoceanographic proxies provide infonnation for reconstructions of the past, including climate changes, global and regional oceanography, and the cycles of biochemical components in the ocean. These prox ies are measurable descriptors for desired but unobservable environmental variables such as tempera ture, salinity, primary productivity, nutrient content, or surface-water carbon dioxide ...

  • Ocean Biogeochemistry

    The Role of the Ocean Carbon Cycle in Global Change

    Edited by Michael J.R. Fasham ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Oceans account for 50% of the anthropogenic CO2 released into the atmosphere. During the past 15 years an international programme, the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), has been studying the ocean carbon cycle to quantify and model the biological and physical processes whereby CO2 is pumped from the ocean's surface to the depths of the ocean, where it can remain for hundreds of years. This ... Read more

  • The Global Thermohaline Paleocirculation

    by Elena Ivanova ...
    Originally published in Russian in 2006, this is the first English translation of this important book on paleoceanography and paleoclimatology. Its initial publication was followed by a surge of interest in this subject prompting the author to revise and translate her original work. In the book, she successfully summarizes her own research over recent years and compiles an overview of up-to-date ... Read more

  • The Nordic Seas

    Edited by Burton G. Hurdle ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    " ... as soon as one has traversed the greater part of the wild sea, one comes upon such a huge quantity of ice that nowhere in the whole world has the like been known." "This ice is of a wonderful nature. It lies at times quite still, as one would expect, with openings or large fjords in it; but sometimes its movement is so strong and rapid as to equal that of a ship running before the wind, and ...

  • Towards a Model of Ocean Biogeochemical Processes

    Edited by Geoffrey T. Evans, Michael J.R. Fasham ...
    Key biogeochemical events in the ocean take place in less than a second, are studied in experiments lasting a few hours, and determine cycles that last over seasons or even years. Models of the controlling processes thus have to take into account these time scales. This book aims at achieving consensus among these controlling processes at all relevant time scales. It helps understand the global ... Read more

  • Thermal Signatures of Heat Transfer Processes in the Earth’s Crust

    Translated by C. Newcomb ...
    by Christoph Clauser ...
    Series Book 85 - Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences
    This book deals with the signatures left by geodynamic proceses in the temperature field of the Earth's crust. First, it introduces briefly the established, indirect methods for interpreting the present termperature field and methods for reconstructing the thermal fields of the geological past. Then the spatial and temporal scales that are relevant for heat transport processes are described. This ... Read more

  • Earth’s Rotation from Eons to Days

    Proceedings of a Workshop Held at the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research (ZiF) of the University of Bielefeld, FRG. September 26–30, 1988

    Edited by Peter Brosche, Jürgen Sündermann ...
    Earth's Rotation from Eons to Days reviews long-term changes, methods of measurement, and the major influences on rotation parameters. In order to understand secular changes, the momentary behavior of ocean tides must be analyzed and appropriately modelled. Researchers and students in astronomy and all fields of geosciences will find a wealth of information related to the interaction of ... Read more
