520 _aThe Indian Ocean and its role in the global climate system: This interdisciplinary edited volume provides a comprehensive examination of the Indian Ocean and its fundamental role in regional and global climate. It covers Indian Ocean geology, oceanography, atmosphere, hydrology, biogeochemistry, monsoon systems, circulation, climate variability, extreme events, marine ecosystems, fisheries, ocean-atmosphere interactions, and connections with other ocean basins. It also examines observing systems, climate modeling, paleoclimate evidence, ocean acidification, deoxygenation, warming, and future climate projections. Drawing on observations, modeling, and paleoclimate records, the book brings together current scientific understanding of Indian Ocean variability and change and its implications for climate, ecosystems, and societies.
