✦ Synopsis

Taken from a review of the first edition in SIAM: "This text is different from most others in that it combines several different disciplines and draws on many scientific studies in order to deduce mechanisms of ocean circulation. (…) Therefore (it) cannot be substituted, and (…) it meets its unique goals with clarity and thoroughness".
