Description: "This well-received and comprehensive textbook on atmospheric processes and numerical methods has been thoroughly revised and updated. The new edition includes a wide range of new numerical techniques for solving problems in areas such as cloud microphysics, ocean-atmosphere exchange processes, and atmospheric radiative properties. It also contains improved descriptions of atmospheric physics, dynamics, radiation, and aerosol and cloud processes. Numerous examples and problems are included, with online answers available to lecturers." "Fundamentals of Atmospheric Modeling is essential reading for researchers and advanced students of atmospheric science, meteorology, and environmental science."--Jacket.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 752-783) and index.
