This book examines sea ice and icebergs and their role in the global climate system. It deals with the nature of the polar oceans; the distribution of sea ice; the mechanisms of growth, development and decay; the thermodynamics and dynamics of sea ice; sea ice deformation and ridge-building; the role of the marginal ice zones; the characteristics of icebergs; and the part played by sea ice in the climate system and in the transport of pollutants.
