Atmospheric Turbulence - A Molecular Dynamics Perspective

Klappentext This book, authored by a well-known researcher and expositor in meteorology, focuses on the direct link between molecular dynamics, turbulence theory, fluid mechanics and non equilibrium statistical mechanics, it is relevant to the fields of applied mathematics, physics and atmospheric sciences, and focuses on fluid flow and turbulence, as well as on temperature, radiative transfer and chemistry. With extensive references and glossary, this is an ideal text for graduates and researchers in meteorology, applied mathematics and physical chemistry. Zusammenfassung This book focuses on the direct link between molecular dynamics and atmospheric variation, uniting molecular dynamics, turbulence theory, fluid mechanics and non equilibrium statistical mechanics.
