Sea ice thus plays an important, often defining, role in the natural environment and the global climate system. This book is a global look at the changes in sea ice and the tools and techniques used to measure and record those changes. The first comprehensive research done on sea-ice field techniques, this volume will be indispensable for the study of northern sea ice and a must-have for scientists in the field of climate change research.<B></B></P></DIV>OceanographyFieldworkSea iceSea iceMeasurementElectronic books.OceanographyFieldwork.Sea ice.Sea iceMeasurement.551.34/3Eicken Hajo926766MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458255003321Field techniques for sea ice research2081332UNINA
