The role of snow and ice in the global climate system: a review / Roger G. Barry.
Title: | The role of snow and ice in the global climate system: a review / Roger G. Barry. |
Author(s): | Barry, Roger G. |
Date: | 2002. |
In: | Polar Geography. (2002.), Vol. 26(3) (2002) |
Abstract: | Discusses specific effects of various components of cryosphere on climate system. Describes how geological record shows Earth has probably experienced full suite of possible ice regimes, ranging from 'Snowball Earth' in Neo-Proterozoic epoch to an ice-free state in Cretaceous. Considers cryospheric components on three time scales - geological, centennial-millenial, and interannual-decadal - and briefly places new Climate and Cryosphere (CliC) project of World Climate Research Programme in this context. |
