The first book to introduce a multi-disciplinary approach to our understanding of air-sea interaction
`I wholeheartedly recommend this book to all students and
researchers of air-sea interaction. It is an up-to-date, honest
evaluation of the status of the field at the end of the 1990s.
...it was a joy for me to read because of the many intelligent
discussions and innovative explanations of complex phenomena. It is
also a great foundation for new work... It should also be helpful
for researchers evaluating remote sensing techniques to infer
physical and dynamical phenomena.'
