Increasingly environmental scientists, palaeoceanographers and geologists are collecting quantitative records of environmental changes from sediments, ice cores, corals and trees. These records reveal changes in climate over time intervals of a year to half-a-million years. This book explains how to analyse these records using straightforward explanations and numerous original diagrams, rather than complex mathematical derivations and equations. It provides the ideal reference for all...
More DescriptionIncreasingly environmental scientists, palaeoceanographers and geologists are collecting quantitative records of environmental changes from sediments, ice cores, corals and trees. These records reveal changes in climate over time intervals of a year to half-a-million years. This book explains how to analyse these records using straightforward explanations and numerous original diagrams, rather than complex mathematical derivations and equations. It provides the ideal reference for all those using time-series analysis to study climatic and tidal cycles, and is suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate courses in environmental science, palaeoceanography and geology.
