Paleoclimatology and Paleometeorology: Modern and Past Patterns of Global Atmospheric Transport [E-Book] / edited by Margaret Leinen, Michael Sarnthein.
The NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "Paleoclimatology and Paleometeorology: Modem and Past Patterns of Global Atmospheric Transport" (held at Oracle, Arizona, USA from November 17-19, 1987) brought together atmospheric chemists, physicists, and meteorologists who study the origin and tr...
