Название: Emanuel K. , Atmospheric Convection Издательство: Oxford University Press Год: 1994 ISBN-10: 0195066308 This graduate-level meteorology text and reference provides a scientifically rigorous description of the many types of convective circulations in the Earth's atmosphere. These range from small-scale, convectively driven turbulences in the boundary layer to precipitating systems covering many thousands of square kilometers. The text...

Wiley - Blackwell Publishing, Oxford, 2009, 319 pp. - ISBN 978-1-4051-8542-4 In the 1980s, observations of the removal of ozone from the polar stratosphere and rapid scientific advances in understanding the chemical behaviour of a group of pollutants containing halogens lead to international action to curb the emissions of these compounds, with a view to avoiding ozone depletion of the stratosphere. Twenty years later we are faced with an equally...

This book introduces the reader to all the basic physical building blocks of climate needed to understand the present and past climate of Earth, the climates of Solar System planets, and the climates of the newly discovered extrasolar planets. These building blocks include thermodynamics, infrare...

University Of Colorado Boulder, Academic Press, New York, London, 1996, 649 pp. - ISBN-13: 978-0-12-615160-2 Global satellite observations coupled with increasingly sophisticated computer simulation have led to rapid advances in our understanding of the atmosphere. While opening many doors, these tools have also raised new and increasingly complex questions about atmospheric behavior. At the same time, environmental issues have brought atmospheri...

Second Edition, University of Washington, Academic Press, Amsterdam, London, New York, 2006, 505 pp. – ISBN 13: 978-0-12-732951-2 In the 30 years that have passed since we embarked on the first edition of this book, atmospheric science has developed into a major field of study with far-reaching scientific and societal implications. Topics such as climate and atmospheric chemistry, which were not deemed sufficiently important to warrant chapters o...

Oxford University Press, New York, Oxford, 1999, 471 pp. - ISBN 0-19-510501-Х One of the greatest triumphs of scientific research during the past several decades has been our achievement of understanding complex macroscopic phenomena, of which combustion and atmospheric chemistry are notable examples. In the field of atmospheric chemistry, our detailed knowledge of elementary chemical reactions and photochemical processes has given us an understa...
