Book Description
Mass Balance of the Cryosphere provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of our understanding of the mass balance of the glaciers, ice caps and ice sheets of Antarctica and Greenland. It reviews the theory behind the observations, and describes modelling studies of present and predicted future trends in these key indicators of global climate change. It is an important reference for all scientists working in climate change, environmental sciences and glaciology, written by leading workers in the field.
Review
"I think that it is safe to state that the editors' goal of providing a comprehensive reference text on the present and future mass balance of the cryosphere, understood as land ice and sea ice, has been fully achieved. There is no comparable up-to-date book which assembles a similar amount of knowledge and information. The integration of the contributions from different authors into a coherent volume is very well done."
Ralf Greve, Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society

Paperback. Condition: Like New. First Edition. Bright and clean, firm and square, just a few very minor rubs and bumps. Hence a non-text page is stamped 'damaged'. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition. Thus it looks and feels unread with contents that are crisp, fresh and tight. Now offered for sale at a special bargain price.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The cryosphere comprises all the frozen water and soil on the surface of the Earth. Mass Balance of the Cryosphere focuses on two key components of this environment: land ice (in the form of ice sheets, caps and glaciers) and sea ice. These components have been identified as important indicators of both short and long term climate change. Early chapters cover the theory behind field-based and satellite observations, and modelling of mass balance, providing a thorough grounding in all the concepts and issues presented later in the book. Later chapters review our current understanding of the present and predicted future mass balance of the cryosphere. This is an important reference for all scientists working in the fields of climate change, environmental sciences and glaciology. It is written by leading authors in the field, and is fully integrated to provide a coherent, cross-referenced and consistent exposition on the subject. Land and sea ice combined form the largest part of the Earth's cryosphere, responding to climate change over timescales ranging from seasons to millennia. This is a detailed and comprehensive overview of the observation and modelling of present and predicted future trends in the mass balance of ice on Earth. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781108457217
