Synopsis
This book describes components of the cryosphere: permafrost, snow, land and sea ice and their interactions with the ocean and atmosphere. It explains how numerical modelling of thermodynamic exchanges: conservation of mass, energy, and momentum as well as satellite measurements allow us to observe and understand changes in the cryosphere.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This second edition defines different parts of the cryosphere including: permafrost, snow, land ice, sea ice, ocean, atmosphere and covers numerical modelling of thermodynamic exchanges: conservation of mass, energy, and momentum. It explores the physical basis behind phenomena such as formation of stone circles from melt-freeze processes, snow crystal formation and pressure-melting of glaciers. As an engaging course text for students, it discusses the contribution of melt to sea level rise and explains terms used commonly in the literature.This book is intended for graduates with a numerical sciences background, particularly those who are heading towards postgraduate study or are generally interested in environmental physics.Key FeaturesExplains basic physics underpinning research topicsProvides broad understanding of the fundamental cryospheric componentsDemonstrates how remote sensing measurements are interpreted and used to monitor the cryosphereDescribes the importance of the cryosphere within the global ocean and its relationship with the climateExplains observed phenomena supported by many photos, illustrations, links to other reading material and videos This book describes components of the cryosphere: permafrost, snow, land and sea ice and their interactions with the ocean and atmosphere. It explains how numerical modelling of thermodynamic exchanges: conservation of mass, energy, and momentum as well as satellite measurements allow us to observe and understand changes in the cryosphere.
