Cloud research is a rapidly developing branch of climate science
that's vital to climate modelling. With new observational and
simulation technologies our knowledge of clouds and their role in
the warming climate is accelerating. This book provides a
comprehensive overview of research on clouds and their role in our
present and future climate, covering theoretical, observational,
and modelling perspectives. Part I discusses clouds from three
different perspectives: as particles, light and fluid. Part II
describes our capability to model clouds, ranging from theoretical
conceptual models to applied parameterised representations. Part
III describes the interaction of clouds with the large-scale
circulation in the tropics, mid-latitudes, and polar regions. Part
IV describes how clouds are perturbed by aerosols, the
land-surface, and global warming. Each chapter contains
end-of-chapter exercises and further reading sections, making this
an ideal resource for advanced students and researchers in
climatology, atmospheric science, meteorology, and climate change.
