Produktbeschreibung

New edition of the leading resource on arctic marine ecology with contributions from the world's experts on sea ice
Sea Ice delivers insights into the very latest understanding of how sea ice is formed, how we measure (and model) its extent, the ecosystems that depend on sea ice, and the effect of climate change on its distribution. The book also discusses how sea ice influences the oceanography of underlying waters and the influence that sea ice has on the world's overall climate.
This newly revised and updated Fourth Edition looks at ice-based food webs and at the impact of geopolitics on arctic ecology as well as the increase in human activity in the arctic due to receding ice caps, from shipping to resource extraction and tourism.
Written by a team of more than 50 of the world's leading experts, Sea Ice includes information on: - Sea ice thickness distribution and snow and surface processes on sea ice
- The short-term and long-term dynamics of Arctic versus Antarctic Sea ice
- Current methods of satellite remote sensing of sea ice
- The ecology of sea ice, from microbes to mammals to marine birds
- The cycling of contaminants across the ocean-sea ice-atmosphere interface

In its new edition, Sea Ice remains the leading multidisciplinary resource on the subject for all policy makers, researchers, and students with an interest in the polar regions and their role in the world's oceanic systems.
