USD 154.99
Atmospheric science is the study of the Earth’s atmosphere and the physical processes that govern it. This broad field is divided into several sub-disciplines, including meteorology, aeronomy, and climatology. Meteorology focuses on weather forecasting and incorporates atmospheric chemistry and physics. Climatology examines long-term atmospheric changes and patterns, while aeronomy investigates the upper atmosphere, with particular emphasis on dissociation and ionization processes. The field also extends to planetary science, exploring the atmospheres of planets and natural satellites within our solar system. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of atmospheric science. It elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the discipline. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
