Land ice and climate / Cornelis J. Van der Veen.
Title: | Land ice and climate / Cornelis J. Van der Veen. |
Author(s): | Van der Veen, Cornelis J. |
Date: | 1992. |
Publisher: | Cambridge: Cambridge University Press |
In: | Climate system modeling. (1992.), |
Abstract: | Sections on ice sheets and climate; modelling glacier flow; modelling surface mass balance; response of glaciers to climate changes; response of polar ice sheets to climate changes; possible instability of west Antarctic ice sheet. Concludes by pointing out that simplest possible model with minimum necessary degrees of freedom is most suitable for inclusion of land ice in climate models. References at end of book, p. 725-772. |
