Extreme Events of Air-Sea Interaction: Case Studies from the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea

Air-sea interaction is one of the earliest topics of investigation and examination by researchers in oceanography and meteorology. The importance of the subject stems from the effect this interaction has on the world at global, regional and local levels. This book explores this process, taking the basins of the Mediterranean and Red Seas as areas of particular interest. The main conclusion drawn in this work is that the anthropogenic activities have had destructive effects on both oceans and the atmosphere, leading once-normal air-sea interaction processes to shift towards being extreme events. Such extreme events have severe impacts on oceans, human health, agriculture, the global socioeconomic sector and various other areas of life. This subject is of interest to professionals and postgraduate candidates, and this book includes a set of references to which readers can refer to expand their knowledge about the topic.
