An Introduction to Atmospheric Physics
	This book is addressed to those who wish to understand the relationship between atmospheric phenomena and the nature of matter as expressed in the principles of physics. The interesting atmospheric phenomena are more than applications of gravitation, of thermodynamics, of hydrodynamics, or of electrodynamics; and mastery of the results of controlled experiment and of the related theory alone does not imply an understanding of atmospheric phenomena. This distinction arises because the extent and the complexity of the atmosphere permit effects and interactions that are entirely negligible in the laboratory or are deliberately excluded from it. the objective of laboratory physics is, by isolating the relevant variables, to reveal the fundamental properties of matter; whereas the objective of atmospheric physics, or of any observational science, is to understand those phenomena that are characteristic of the whole system. For these reasons the exposition of atmospheric physics requires substantial extensions of classical physics. It also requires that understanding An Introduction to Atmospheric Physics
Chemistry and Physics of Stratospheric Ozone
	A reference focusing on chemical and physical processes that determine the abundance of stratospheric ozone. Discusses the fundamentals of stratospheric-ozone research. Describes the processes that affect stratospheric ozone. Chemistry and Physics of Stratospheric Ozone
Coastal Meteorology
	Coastal meteorology is an integral part of the total system approach to understanding coastal environments. This book provides information for students who are not necessarily majoring in meteorology or atmospheric sciences but who nonetheless have need of such knowledge. Scientists, engineers, and coastal planners will also find this book a useful resource for familiarizing themselves with meteorological information. Coastal Meteorology
Encyclopedia of Atmospheric Sciences, Six-Volume Set
	This authoritative resource covers all aspects of atmospheric sciences--including both theory and applications. Nearly 350 articles and over 1,900 figures and photographs are presented, many in full-color. The Encyclopedia is an ideal resource for academia, government, and industry in the fields of atmospheric, ocean, and environmental sciences. It is written at a level that allows undergraduate students to understand the material, while providing active researchers with the latest information in the field. As an additional benefit, the Encyclopedia of Atmospheric Sciences has been developed alongside the award-winning Encyclopedia of Ocean Sciences. Together these references provide readers with a comprehensive resource and a link between these two fields. *Covers all aspects of atmospheric sciences' including both theory and applications *Presents nearly 350 articles and over 1,900 figures and photographs *Broad-ranging articles include topics such as atmospheric chemistry, biogeochemical cycles, boundary layers, clouds, general circulation, global Encyclopedia of Atmospheric Sciences, Six-Volume Set
