Atmospheric and climatological studies are becoming more and more
important in day-to-day living. Winds and ocean current owe their
existence to the thermodynamic imbalances that arise from the
differential heating of the Earth and air by the sun. Accounting
for heat exchanges with the atmosphere and ocean is essential in
any predictive model of the ocean and/or atmosphere. Thermodynamic
feedback processes in the atmosphere and ocean are critical to
understanding the overall stability of the Earth's climate and
climate change. Water and its phase changes make the thermodynamics
of the atmosphere and ocean uniquely interesting and
challenging.
Written by leading scientists in the field, Thermodynamics of
Atmospheres and Oceans incorporates all the relevant information
from the varying fields of dynamics meteorology, atmospheric
physics and cloud physics, into a comprehensive, self-contained
guide ideal for students and researchers of atmospheric
thermodynamics. At the moment, courses in atmospheric thermdynamics
typically have to use one or two chapters in textbooks on dynamic
meteorology, atmospheric physics or cloud physics. This book
combines these topics in one text.
