Beschreibung:
With the increasing attention paid to climate change, there is ever-growing interest in atmospheric physics and the processes by which the atmosphere affects Earth's energy balance. This self-contained text, written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in physics or meteorology, assumes no prior knowledge apart from basic mechanics and calculus and contains material for a complete course. Augmented with worked examples, the text considers all aspects of atmospheric physics except dynamics, including moist thermodynamics, cloud microphysics, atmospheric radiation and remote sensing, and will be an invaluable resource for students and researchers.
This text provides a self-contained introductory course in atmospheric physics suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in meteorology or physics. Assuming no prior knowledge other than basic mechanics and calculus, it offers a solid overview of how the atmosphere functions, including topics such as moist thermodynamics, cloud microphysics, atmospheric radiation and remote sensing.
