Tectonic Boundary Conditions for Climate Reconstructions

0 - Default Title
Description
In recent years there has been a movement to break down olddisciplinary boundaries in the geosciences to develop a moreunified view of the earth as an integrated system, butefforts to integrate solid earth and climate studies havenot progressed as rapidly as other areas. Responding to thisdeficiency, this volume provides an in-depth examination ofclimate modeling--an area which can benefit enormously fromthe interaction between solid earth geophysical studies andclimate studies. Written by eminent figures from bothdisciplines, this volume focuses on the role of tectonicboundary conditions for paleoclimate reconstructions. Chapters present background material on the impact oftectonic changes on climate, as well as the uncertainties intectonic boundary conditions, such as positions ofcontinents, height of mountains, depth of sea floor, amongothers.
