Long-Term Climatic Variations Data and Modelling

Long-Term Climatic Variations Data and Modelling / edited by Jean-Claude Duplessy, Marie-Therese Spyridakis.

Climate is the most important component of the Earth's environment and climatic fluctuations have a strong impact on water supplies, vegetation, energy use etc. Thus our understanding of the climatic system is of utmost importance. Leading experts in the field of climate modelling and paleoclim...
