The Atmospheric Boundary Layer

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is an advanced text covering both the physics and dynamics of the atmospheric boundary layer. It emphasizes the role of surface processes and the application of boundary-layer considerations to climate modelling. A broad range of material is covered and the author maintains a careful balance between mathematical description and physical interpretation.
