This book covers the role of water in global atmospheric phenomena,
focussing on the physical processes involving water molecules and
water microparticles. It presents the reader with a detailed look
at some of the most important types of global atmospheric phenomena
involving water, such as water circulation, atmospheric electricity
and the greenhouse effect. Beginning with the cycle of water
evaporation and condensation, and the important roles played by the
nucleation and growth processes of water microdroplets, the book
discusses atmospheric electricity as a secondary phenomenon of
water circulation in the atmosphere, comprising a chain of
processes involving water molecules and water microdroplets.
Finally, the book discusses aspects of the molecular spectroscopy
of greenhouse atmospheric components, showing how water molecules
and water microdroplets give the main contribution to atmospheric
emission in the infrared spectrum range. Featuring numerous
didactic schematics and appendices detailing all necessary unit
conversion factors, this book is useful to both active researchers
and doctoral students working in the fields of atmospheric physics,
climate science and molecular spectroscopy.
