Description
This book is a comprehensive treatment of atmospheric radiation, covering physical and mathematical foundations. It assumes no prior knowledge of atmospheric physics, and can be applied to any planetary atmosphere.
A complete revision of Goody's classic 1964 work, this volume offers a systematic discussion of atmospheric radiation processes that today are at the center of worldwide study and concern. As a complete treatment of physical and mathematical foundations, the text assumes no prior knowledge of atmospheric physics. The theoretical discussion is systematic, and can therefore be applied with minor extension to any planetary atmosphere.
