Title StatementPhysics of the marine atmosphere by H. U. Roll, edited by J. Van Neigham
Physical Description426p
Summary, Etc.In view of the particular emphasis now placed on the development of marine sciences, it is felt that works dealing with the physical approach are needed. It is hoped that this volume will find this need and will prove useful not only to meteorologists and oceanographers but also to scientists working in the fields of atmospheric physics and geophysics. In this volume, marine atmosphere is regarded as that part of the atmosphere which has the sea surface as its lower boundary and which receives its peculiar characteristics from interaction with the ocean. The main object of this monograph is to discuss the influence exerted by the sea surface on the properties of the atmosphere as well as on atmospheric processes of small and medium scale. Particular consideration is given to the exchange occurring in the boundary layer between ocean and atmosphere. The discussions include the flow characteristics and thermodynamics, as well as the chemistry, electricity and radioactivity, of the marine atmosphere. The particular difficulties inherent in meteorological measurements at sea are considered in an opening section. Emphasis is placed on the physical approach rather than on geographical aspects and those of application. The discussion of the empirical facts, regarded as fundamental is followed by a theoretical interpretation
