Bücher der Reihe Special Publications of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics

This book covers important research issues related to high-impact weather and extreme climate events, and examines the dynamical linkages between these and various atmospheric and ocean phenomena. Highlighting recent research and new advances in the field, this timely volume is ideal for professionals, policymakers, graduate students and academic researchers.

The volume brings together an international team of eminent researchers to provide authoritative reviews on the wide-ranging ramifications of climate change spanning eight key themes, including: planetary issues; geodetic issues; the Earth's fluid environment; regions of the Earth; urban environments; food security; and risk, safety and security.

A state-of-the-art review of research in geomagnetism, aeronomy and space weather. Written by eminent researchers, it summarises the current state of knowledge on Earth's magnetic field, and discusses current and emerging studies and their applications. It is a valuable reference for researchers and students in geomagnetism and aeronomy.
