Summary Annotation Over the last decade, the study of cycles as a model for the earth's changing climate has become a new science. <b>Earth Systems Science</b> is the basis for understanding all aspects of anthropogenic global change, such as chemically forced global climate change. The work is aimed at those students interested in the emerging scientific discipline.<br /><b>Earth Systems Science</b> is an integrated discipline that has been rapidly developing over the last two decades. New information is included in this updated edition so that the text remains relevant.<br />This volume contains five new chapters, but of special importance is the inclusion of an expanded set of student exercises.<br />The two senior authors are leading scientists in their fields and have been awarded numerous prizes for their research efforts.<br /><br />* First edition was widely adopted<br />* Authors are highly respected in their field<br />* Global climate change, integral to the book, is now one of the most important issues in atmospheric sciences and oceanography
