The phenomenon of evaporation in the natural environment is of
interest in various diverse disciplines. This book is an attempt to
present a coherent and organized introduction to theoretical
concepts and relationships useful in analyzing this phe nomenon,
and to give an outline of their history and their application. The
main objective is to provide a better understanding of evaporation,
and to connect some of the approaches and paradigms, that have been
developed in different disciplines concerned with this phenomenon.
The book is intended for professional scientists and engineers, who
are active in hydrology, meteorology, agronomy, oceanography,
climatology and related environ mental fields, and who wish to
study prevailing concepts on evaporation. At the same time, I hope
that the book will be useful to workers in fluid dynamics, who want
to become acquainted with applications to an important and
interesting natural phenomenon. As suggested in its subtitle, the
book consists of three major parts. The first, consisting of
Chapters I and 2, gives a general ouline of the problem and a
history of the theories of evaporation from ancient times through
the end of the nineteenth century. This history is far from
exhaustive, but it sket hes the background and the ideas that led
directly to the scientific revolution in Europe and, ultimately, to
our present-day knowledge."
