Polar Remote Sensing: Volume I: Atmosphere and Oceans
ISBN: 9783540430971 / Angielski / Twarda / 756 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The polar regions, perhaps more than any other places on Earth, give the geophysical scientist a sense of exploration.

Here, in this classic and first book to demonstrate the mammoth literary talent that...
