Description
A quantitative introduction to the Earth’s atmosphere for intermediate-advanced undergraduate and graduate students, with an emphasis on underlying physical principles. This edition has been brought completely up-to-date, and now includes a new chapter on the physics of climate change which builds upon material introduced in earlier chapters, giving the student a broad understanding of some of the physical concepts underlying this most important and topical subject. In contrast to many other books on atmospheric science, the emphasis is on the underlying physics. Atmospheric applications are developed mainly in the problems given at the end of each chapter. The book is an essential resource for all students of atmospheric physics as part of an atmospheric science, meteorology, physics, Earth science, planetary science, or applied mathematics course.
User’s Reviews
Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐Promising and appealing by it’s well expressed introduction this together with a systematic organizing of the texts.
⭐As a budding atmospheric physicist (entering graduate school this fall) holding a B.S. in mathematics and possessing decent knowledge in physics and chemistry, I was extremely disappointed when I bought this book for self study. Andrews summarily exposes the important topics, with most of them lacking in breadth, depth, clarity, and physical insight. Additionally, the tone is rather dispassionate. Fortunately I stumbled on ‘Fundamentals of atmospheric physics’ by Murry Salby, and find it a superior, lucid read. I’d highly recommend going for that instead.
⭐One of the better atmospheric books out there.
⭐Great mathematician-friendly book to get a good grounding of atmospheric physics.
⭐Il libro e interessante, con calcoli integrali e di derivazione fattibili anche per i non matematici, lo consiglio per chi vuole avere una buona conoscenza della dinamica atmosferica元々英語の本ですが、買った前に外国で印刷されることは当然なことと思いました。しかし、もらった瞬間何か違うが気づいました。原版の本より厚くて、ペーパーも原版の本と違います。当然本の内容は問題がない、値段も安い。ちょっと原板の本と感じちがいから三個の星をあげます。
