Atmospheric Convection is a scientifically rigorous description of the multitude of convective circulations in the Earth's atmosphere, ranging from small-scale convectively driven turbulence in the boundary layer to non-precipitating "trade wind" cumuli to precipitating convective systems covering many tens of thousands of square kilometres.
Atmospheric Convection is a scientifically rigorous description of the multitude of convective circulations in the Earth''s atmosphere. The book introduces the student to three principal techniques used in understanding and predicting convective motion: theory, field experiment, and numerical modelling. Each chapter is followed by a set of exercises designed to test the understanding of the phenomena themselves as well as the techniques used in exploiting them. Topics covered include dry convection, Raleigh-Benard convection, the thermodynamics of moist and cloudy air, and the characteristics of individual convective clouds.
