This book introduces the reader to all the basic physical building
blocks of climate needed to understand the present and past climate
of Earth, the climates of Solar System planets, and the climates of
extrasolar planets. These building blocks include thermodynamics,
infrared radiative transfer, scattering, surface heat transfer and
various processes governing the evolution of atmospheric
composition. Nearly four hundred problems are supplied to help
consolidate the reader's understanding, and to lead the reader
towards original research on planetary climate. This textbook is
invaluable for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate
students in atmospheric science, Earth and planetary science,
astrobiology, and physics. It also provides a superb reference text
for researchers in these subjects, and is very suitable for
academic researchers trained in physics or chemistry who wish to
rapidly gain enough background to participate in the excitement of
the new research opportunities opening in planetary climate.
