Introduction to Micrometeorology

von S. Pal Ayra Kategorie: Geophysik ISBN: 0120593548 Kommentar abgeben

Kurzbeschreibung This brand new edition of a successful textbook begins with basic fluid and thermodynamical laws and concepts, then moves on to cover such major topics as momentum and heat exchanges with homogeneous surfaces, nonhomogeneous boundary layers, fundamentals of turbulence, and more.

Fully updated and expanded with new worked problems, this book is intended as a textbook for courses in micrometeorology for undergraduate students (juniors or seniors) in meteorology or environmental science, as well as for an introductory postgraduate-level course in boundary-layer meteorology. It will also serve as a good reference for professional meteorologists, environmental scientist and engineers, particularly those interested in problems of air pollution, atmospheric-biospheric interactions, wind-engineering and engineering meteorology.
