Glaciers and climate change: a meteorologist's view / J. Oerlemans.

Title: Glaciers and climate change: a meteorologist's view / J. Oerlemans.
Author(s): Oerlemans, J.
Date: 2001.
Publisher: Lisse, etc.: A.A. Balkema
Abstract: Brings together meteorology and theory of glacier flow. Written primarily for those with interest in physics of environment. Reflects author's interests in interaction between glaciers and atmosphere, emphasizing work on valley glaciers and their microclimates. Uses simple analytical and numerical models to investigate glacier flow and response to climate change, setting these in context of global ice cover and sea level rise. Surveys modern developments in glacier research, including model intercomparisons and satellite based observation methods.
