Description
An Introduction to Atmospheric Physics by David G. Andrews provides a quantitative introduction to the Earth's atmosphere, focusing on underlying physical principles. This edition has been updated to include a new chapter on climate change, building upon material introduced in earlier chapters. The emphasis is on the fundamental physics of atmospheric science, with applications developed through problems presented at the end of each chapter. As an essential resource for students studying atmospheric physics as part of courses in atmospheric science, meteorology, physics, Earth science, or applied mathematics, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of key concepts. Suitable for intermediate-advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this edition brings the subject up-to-date with new material on climate change.
