Atmosphere, Ocean and Climate Dynamics Marshall J., Plumb R.A.

Oceans provide the very air, the oxygen we breathe, and climate change is altering the ancient balance between oceans and the atmosphere. Autumn atmospheric response to the 2007 low Arctic sea ice extent in coupled ocean–atmosphere hindcasts. Coastal communities, fishers and fish farmers are already profoundly affected by climate change. Climate Dynamics 38, 2131–2141 (2012). Rising sea levels, acid oceans, droughts and floods are among the impacts of climate change. Orsolini, Y., Senan, R., Benestad, R. Clouds are also an essential Particular emphasis is given to the connections of clouds to climate through radiation, dynamics, precipitation, and chemistry, and to the difficulties in understanding the obvious but elusive fact that clouds must be affected by climate change. Drijfhout, Wilco Hazeleger, & Camiel Severijns (2009). They'll learn about ocean chemistry and currents; the interactions of ocean, atmosphere and climate; and the dynamics of how the earth's crust is formed and moves around. Latent heating and cooling related to cloud processes modify atmospheric circulation, and, by modulating sea surface temperatures, clouds affect the oceanic circulation.
