This book, authored by a well-known researcher and expositor in meteorology, focuses on the direct link between molecular dynamics and atmospheric variation. Uniting 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.
This text investigates the fundamental connection between molecular-level dynamics and large-scale atmospheric turbulence. Adrian Tuck, an established researcher in meteorology, synthesizes principles from non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, fluid mechanics, and turbulence theory to bridge the gap between microscopic molecular behavior and macroscopic atmospheric phenomena. The work provides a rigorous framework for understanding how molecular interactions influence radiative transfer, chemical processes, and temperature variations within the atmosphere.
