This key new textbook provides a state-of-the-art view of the
physics of cloud and precipitation formation, covering the most
important topics in the field: the microphysics, thermodynamics and
cloud-scale dynamics. Highlights include: the condensation process
explained with new insights from chemical physics studies; the
impact of the particle curvature (the Kelvin equation) and solute
effect (the Kohler equation); homogeneous and heterogeneous
nucleation from recent molecular dynamic simulations; and the
hydrodynamics of falling hydrometeors and their impact on collision
growth. 3D cloud-model simulations demonstrate the dynamics and
microphysics of deep convective clouds and cirrus formation, and
each chapter contains problems enabling students to review and
implement their new learning. Packed with detailed mathematical
derivations and cutting-edge stereographic illustrations, this is
an ideal text for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses, and
also serves as a reference for academic researchers and
professionals working in atmospheric science, meteorology,
climatology, remote sensing and environmental science.
