Produktinformationen zu „Oceans (ePub)“
Since the HMS Challenger expedition of 1872 1876, our vision of the
ocean has changed completely. We now understand that it plays a key
role in biodiversity, climate regulation, and mineral and biological
resources, and as such, the ocean is a major service provider for
humanity.
Oceans draws on data from new oceanographic and satellite tools,
acquired through international interdisciplinary programs. It describes
the processes that control how the ocean functions, on different spatial
and temporal scales.
After considering the evolution of concepts in physical, chemical and
biological oceanography, the book outlines the future of a warmer,
acidified, less oxygenated ocean. It shows how a view of the ocean at
different scales changes how we understand it. Finally, the book
presents the challenges facing the ocean in terms of the exploitation of
biological and mineral resources, in the context of sustainable
development and the regulation of climate change.
