Ice in the ocean
de P. Wadhams
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.
