Description: Abrupt Climate Change : Mechanisms, Patterns, and Impacts, Hardcover by Rashid, Harunur (EDT); Polyakov, Leonid (EDT); Mosley-Thompson, Ellen (EDT), ISBN 087590484X, ISBN-13 9780875904849, Brand New, Free P&P in the UK Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 193.
Abrupt Climate Change: Mechanisms, Patterns, and Impacts brings together a diverse group of paleoproxy records such as ice cores, marine sediments, terrestrial (lakes and speleothems) archives, and coupled ocean-atmosphere climate models to document recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of abrupt climate changes. Since the discovery of the Dansgaard-Oeschger events in Greenland ice cores and the subsequent discovery of their contemporary events in the marine sediments of the North Atlantic, the search for these abrupt, millennial-scale events across the globe has intensified, and as a result, the number of paleoclimatic records chronicling such events has increased. The volume highlights include discussions of records of past climate variability, meridional overturning circulation, land-ocean-atmosphere interactions, feedbacks in the climate system, and global temperature anomalies. Abrupt Climate Change will be of interest to students, researchers, academics, and policy makers who are concerned about abrupt climate change and its potential impact on society.
