Publisher: WIT Press, 1998

Synopsis

This volume covers topics on atmospheric transport and diffusion processes with particular emphasis on the PBL. This is the part of the atmosphere in which most air pollution is released and transported by mean winds and dispersed by turbulent eddy motion. Also chemical transfer affecting human life and vegetation is studied. This volume covers some of the more recent advancements in this area.

About this title

Review

..".the book establishes a high scientific level and it is a recommendable reference to all interested in boundary layer problems. It will be of value to graduate students and researchers in atmospheric physics and meteorology, particularly in Planetary Boundary Layer and Air Pollution Meteorology."

Synopsis

Covers topics of transport and diffusion processes with special emphasis on the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL)--the part of the atmosphere in which most air pollutants are released and transported by mean winds and dispersed by turbulent eddy motions. Specific topics include the current understanding of the ABL, urban air pollution, mesoscale atm
