9780195704303: Climatic Change and Variability in Southern Africa

Synopsis

This book considers the ways in which southern Africa's climates have changed over three thousand million years, and over the period of metereological record. Present-day circulation is discussed, and the manner in which the circulation modulates wet and dry spells is explained. The author proposes a circulation model to account for palaeoclimatic changes over the subcontinent over the last twenty-five millenia. The research, material, and expertise accumulated over a period of some 17 years have been gathered together in this book. Nothing similar exists for southern Africa, or for any other southern hemisphere countries. Climatologists; metereologists; geographers.
