Marine Climatological Atlas - Canadian Beaufort Sea
Author: T. AgnewPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Atlases
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
This marine climatological atlas was compiled as an aid for regulatory agencies, structural designers, operational planners, and marine scientists. Ice, wind, waves, air and sea surface temperature, wind chill, freezing spray, precipitation, cloud, visibility, flying weather and sea surface pressure are analysed. Contour maps and graphs are produced for various areas in and around the Beaufort sea depending on data availability. Four marine sub-areas were profiled in more detail as were six coastal land stations. observed data sets include rig/ship data from Dome Petroleum Limited, ships-of opportunity, land stations, ice cover and surface pressure. The uses and limitations of the data sets are briefly outlined. -- abstract.

World Atlas of Holocene Sea-Level Changes
Author: J. PluetPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080870961
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
This timely study is concerned with the current record of sea-level changes during the past 10,000 years; their rates, and our ability to estimate these changes accurately. The author begins with an extensive introduction to the subject, covering the historical background and the possible causes of sea-level changes and the main methods used to reconstruct former sea-level positions. The second and main part of the Atlas provides a worldwide review of Holocene sea level changes by assembling some 800 local relative sea-level curves, deduced from field data from all parts of the world, and comparing these with over 100 curves predicted by geophysical models. This data is compiled in 77 regional plates, each containing 4-20 relative sea-level curves drawn to the same scale. These plates enable a visual assessment of geological trends in sea-level during the Holocene to be made.Comparing this data with trends deduced from tide gauges and near-future trends predicted by climate models, should enable more accurate assessment of near future sea-level changes on a local scale. The regional plates are fully annotated with locations, authors' names, year of publication and some indicative values of the spring tidal range in the region, as well as an accompanying text of comments.Finally, the author provides a state of the art review, proposes improvements in methodology and suggests directions for further study. An extensive bibliography of over 750 references, and two indexes complete the study. This comprehensive work contains data and interpretations of value to all those with an interest in regional geography, climatology, sea-level change, and environmental science.

Green Atlas
Author: Dustin MulvaneyPublisher: SAGE Publications
ISBN: 1483318044
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 173
Book Description
This reference resource, in atlas format, is an online-only compendium of maps and data sets accompanied by multimedia elements designed to illustrate key concepts in green issues and environmentalism graphically and interactively. Topics for the maps presented in this work were selected from articles in the 12-volume SAGE Reference Series on Green Society: Toward a Sustainable Future. Each map includes links to one or more of the series articles. Maps include interactive components, with clickable icons to deliver the data and statistics that make up each map. Further, multimedia elements (photos, video and audio clips and transcripts) accompany map themes and presentations.
