Antarctic weather and climate / M.J. Rubin.
Title: | Antarctic weather and climate / M.J. Rubin. |
Author(s): | Rubin, M. J. |
Date: | 1964. |
Publisher: | Cambridge, MA: M.I.T. Press |
In: | Research in geophysics. (1964.), Vol. 2. Solid earth and interface phenomena. |
Abstract: | Discusses: chemical constituents of air and snow; climate controls (solar radiation regime due to polar location of Antarctica, distribution of land and water in high latitudes of Southern Hemisphere, and altitude and surface conditions of continent); heat and water budget; circulation patterns; and climate. Defines five main climate zones: high Antarctic plateau; slope; coast (ice coast and barrier, outer glacial shelves, inner glacial shelves, oasis, and Antarctic Peninsula); drifting ice (Antarctic and sub-Antarctic); and open water. Includes maps with isopleths of annual accmulation, temperature, and pressure. |
