Description
This acclaimed hardcover text--recognized by teachers throughout the world as the best of its kind--provides advanced undergraduate and graduate students with an integrative presentation of the important concepts of the theory of atmospheric motion. Beginning with a comprehensive mathematical treatment of atmospheric kinematics and thermodynamics, Professor Dutton--Dean of the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences at The Pennsylvania State University--presents a thorough development of atmospheric dynamics. Topics treated in detail include atmospheric structure, the equations of motion in inertial coordinates, meteorological equations of motion, moisture processes, models of the wind, atmospheric energetics, vorticity, atmospheric wave motion, and the quasi-geostrophic theory of large-scale flow. The book is divided into three parts: Foundations of Atmospheric Dynamics, The Equations of Atmospheric Motion, and the Theory of Atmospheric Motion. A chapter new to this edition presents a unified approach to appr
