This book provides an up-to-date, comprehensive treatment of the
variables and processes of microclimate and local climate,
including radiation balance and energy balance. It describes and
explains the climate within the lower atmosphere and upper soil,
the region critical to life on Earth. Topics that are covered
include not only the physical processes that affect microclimate,
but also biological processes that affect vegetation and animals,
including people. A geographic tour of the microclimates of the
major ecosystems around the world is included. All major biomes and
surface types, including urban areas, are examined, and the effects
of climate change on microclimate are described. This book is
invaluable for advanced students and researchers in climatology in
departments of environmental science, geography, meteorology,
agricultural science, and forestry.
