Wallace and Hobbs' original edition of Atmospheric Science helped define
the field nearly 30 years ago, and has served as the cornerstone for most
university curriculums. Now students and professionals alike can use this
updated classic to understand atmospheric phenomena in the context of the
latest discoveries and technologies, and prepare themselves for more advanced
study and real-life problem solving. Atmospheric Science, Second Edition, has
been completely revamped in terms of content and appearance. It contains new
chapters on atmospheric chemistry, the Earth system, climate, and the
atmospheric boundary layer, as well as enhanced treatment of atmospheric
dynamics, weather forecasting, radiative transfer, severe storms, and human
impacts, such as global warming. The authors illustrate concepts with colorful
state-of-the-art imagery and cover a vast amount of new information in the
field. They have also developed several online materials for instructors who
adopt the text.With its thorough coverage of the fundamentals, clear
explanations, and extensive updates, Wallace & Hobbs' Atmospheric Science,
Second Edition, is the essential first step in educating today's atmospheric
scientists.
