物理海洋学远远超出了对一般海洋环流的研究。物理海洋学家研究潮汐，风驱动的表面波，空气/海洋相互作用，海洋中的声音，海洋中的光，以及海床，海滩和人工结构（如防波堤和船舶）的物理过程。物理海洋学也是化学和生物海洋学以及海洋生物物理学的关键。通过与大气、冰冻圈、生物圈和陆地的相互作用，海洋的物理状态在气候动力学和地球系统科学中也起着关键作用。然而，海洋环流的研究是物理海洋学的核心，并在该领域的发展中发挥着核心作用。这一发展涉及到海洋物理观测、流体动力学理论和环流数值模型之间的相互作用。本书的重点是时间平均的全球洋流。为了探讨这一主题，我们必须通过回顾有关物理海洋学的一些初步想法来做好准备。我们在报道中是有选择性的，只讨论以后出现的话题。有关物理海洋学经验方法的全面讨论，请参阅Emery和Thompson（2001年）或Wunsch（2015年）的书籍。关于动力海洋学的更多细节，请参阅Vallis（2006年）、马歇尔和Plumb（2008年）或Pedlosky（1996年）等。对于该领域的历史反思，Jochem和Murtugudde（2006）和米尔斯（2011）是很好的起点。
Physical oceanography extends well beyond the study of the general ocean circulation. Physical oceanographers investigate tides, wind-driven surface waves, air/sea interaction, sound in the ocean, light in the ocean, and physical processes at the sea bed, on beaches and on man-made structures like breakwaters and ships. Physical oceanography is also key to chemical and biological oceanography, and marine geophysics. Through its coupled interaction with the atmosphere, cryosphere, biosphere, and land, the physical state of the ocean also plays a critical part in climate dynamics and Earth system science. Nevertheless, study of the ocean general circulation is central to physical oceanography and is playing a central role in the development of the field. This development involves an interplay between physical observations of the ocean, theories of the fluid dynamics, and numerical models of the circulation. The focus in this book is on the timeaveraged, global ocean currents. In order to approach this topic we must set the stage by reviewing some preliminary ideas about physical oceanography. We are selective in the coverage, only discussing topics that recur later. For comprehensive discussions of empirical methods in physical oceanography, consult the books by Emery and Thompson (2001) or Wunsch (2015). For more details on dynamical oceanography consult Vallis (2006), Marshall and Plumb (2008), or Pedlosky (1996), among others. For reflections on the field’s history, Jochem and Murtugudde (2006) and Mills (2011) are good starting points .
