(Ebook) Atmospheric Science: An Introductory Survey by John M. Wallace, Peter Victor Hobbs ISBN 9780127329512, 012732951X

This textbook contains a consideration of the wide field of problems connected with statistical methods of processing of observed data, with the main examples and considered models related to geophysics and seismic exploration. This textbook will be particularly helpful to students and professionals from various fields of physics, connected with an estimation of the parameters of the physical objects by experimental data. The reader can also find many important topics, which are the basis for statistical methods of estimation and inverse problem solutions Introduction and overview -- The earth system -- Atmospheric thermodynamics -- Radiative transfer -- Atmospheric chemistry -- Cloud microphysics -- Atmospheric dynamics -- Weather systems -- The atmospheric boundary layer -- Climate dynamics
