The atmosphere plays a dominant role in shaping the physical
environment and in controlling activities and responses in the
cultural environment. "Atmospheric Processes and Systems" provides
insight to the understanding of such extraordinary atmospheric
events as El Nino.
Russell D. Thompson examines different aspects of the mass, energy
and circulation systems observed in the atmosphere, and provides
detailed accounts of specific phenomena, including atmospheric
water evaporation, condensation and precipitation, pressure and
winds, and thermal differences and weather disturbances.
Illustrated throughout with information diagrams and photos, this
book presents a non-technical introduction to the complex themes
and processes of the atmosphere.
