Focusing on a region where torrential rains, cold-air surges and heat waves are a part of the economy, culture and rhythms of life, The Asian Monsoon examines the monsoon environment. The text analyses paleoclimate records, human influences on the monsoon climate and the monsoon's economic affects.
With almost 1,000 references to publications and reports, this book covers the complete literature of the subject and provides a systematic review of climate change in almost all of its aspects.
The main idea of this book is to provide the reader with tools to solve the problem of modeling the interactions between radiation and light scatterers. The authors review contemporary scattering methods and introduce efficient versions of the fast exact methods as well as of some approximate ones.
This book examines the effect of human activities on atmospheric ozone. It details the role of remote sensing techniques in understanding the effects of human activities on atmospheric ozone as well as in the development of social and political awareness.
This book provides important and valuable insights into the genesis of tropical cyclones. It is based on scientific findings from the performance of satellite data processing and a series of scientific marine expeditions to the tropics.
This updated second edition features multi-author, comprehensive and authoritative reviews of intra-seasonal variability. It has a balance of observation, theory and modeling and is a single-source reference for those interested in this key phenomenon.
This updated and expanded second edition of a much lauded work provides a current overview of the impacts of climate change on tropical forests.
Here is a focused, comprehensive reference on recent research on severe convective storms and tornadoes. It features many illustrations of severe storm phenomena from mobile Doppler radars, operational Doppler radars, photographs and numerical simulations.
