Atmospheric Thermodynamics is a comprehensive guide that delves into a subject that can sometimes be daunting. The text examines real-life problems and applications of the field, providing insights into the fundamental basics while covering the first and second laws, the ideal gas law, and moist processes in Earth's atmosphere. Water, in all its phases, plays a crucial role in weather and the Earth's climate system. The authors have written the book with a willingness to challenge assumptions and approximations commonly found in other textbooks, making it accessible to a wide range of readers.
The text incorporates historical elements to provide context for the evolution of thermodynamics and its significance in atmospheric science. It demonstrates how physical reasoning leads to accurate explanations of everyday phenomena. Many of the experiments described utilize inexpensive instruments to leverage the Earth's atmosphere as a freely accessible thermodynamics library.
This second edition offers updated treatments of atmospheric measurements and includes extensive sections on atmospheric applications of the first and second laws, as well as energy exchange between humans and their atmospheric environment. With over 400 thought-provoking problems and 350 references with annotated notes and further reading suggestions, this edition provides a solid foundation for understanding the fundamentals of atmospheric and environmental sciences while serving as a comprehensive reference guide for professionals in the field.
