    atmosphere–ocean system and motivates the deeper examination to follow. The character of coupled atmosphere–ocean interactions is briefly introduced. Simple energy balance models are derived and used to illustrate the fundamental mechanisms behind variations of temperature with altitude‚ latitude‚ and season. The global annual mean energy balance is then presented and briefly discussed. Finally‚ the origins‚ thermodynamic structure‚ and composition of the atmosphere and ocean are summarized.
