Ocean Dynamics and the Carbon Cycle: Principles and Mechanisms

This excellent book has much to offer as both a physical oceanography and biogeochemistry text. As a working physical oceanographer I find it in invaluable as a reference text and teaching aid. I regularly recommend it to new students, both undergraduate and postgraduate, looking for a well thought out and thorough introduction to both subjects. In this respect, its integrated treatment of both is second-to-none and sets the book apart from the others available. When first reading the book, I found myself wishing I'd had it four years before! It would have been a great way to pick up all the biogeochemistry I found I needed. I also learnt a lot of physical oceanography, dynamics and ocean circulation. In this regard, the title is extremely accurate; ocean dynamics and the carbon cycle are both given equal weight and the authors have a lot of insight to offer on both. I highly recommend this book to both researchers and students, as well as anyone else interested in the subject looking for a very readable book written by leading experts on the subject.

海洋の炭素循環に係る諸要因のうち、特に海洋の物理に詳しい。数式の説明も十分であり、海洋物理の理解の助けになる。モデルを仕事としようとする方にお勧めする。

Very informative, neatly explained and succinct. If you have a keen interest in the oceans like me then this is a bargain.

good
