Overview
This book aims to address the issues of natural and human induced or accelerated environmental change on the global scale. Concerns about these issues are commonly expressed by questions such as: How does carbon dioxide influence global temperatures? What determines changes in sea level and how do such changes affect the coastal environment? How has the atmospheric composition changed with time? What are the controls of the oceans, the atmosphere, and the physical geography of the land in setting the regional and temporal patterns of climate? In order to think globally about environmental change, the provincial boundaries of the classical disciplines must be breached.Book Details
