Der „Klimabericht für die Metropolregion Hamburg“ wurde im Rahmen des Exzellenzclusters CliSAP am KlimaCampus der Universität Hamburg und ihrer außeruniversitären Partner erarbeitet.
Dieses Buch ist aus einer zweisemestrigen Vorlesung über die Physik der Atmosphäre im Rahmen des Faches Umweltphysik and der Universität Heidelberg hervorgegangen.
Da die Wetterprognose heutzutage vorwiegend mit numerischen Methoden erfolgt, ist die Meteorologie endgültig zur Physik und Chemie der Atmosphäre geworden und zunehmend mathematisiert.
Gegenstand des Buches sind die atmosphärischen Vorgänge im unmittelbaren Lebensraum des Menschen, also in den unteren 100-1000 Metern der Atmosphäre und in Gebieten mit nur einigen Kilometern Ausdehnung.
Diese reich illustrierte Einführung in die Meteorologie entstand aus der langjährigen Lehrerfahrung des Autors an den Universitäten München, Göttingen und Bonn.
Radiative Transfer in Coupled Environmental Systems This book discusses radiative transfer in coupled media such as atmosphere-ocean systems with Lambertian as well non-Lambertian refl ecting surfaces at the lower boundary.
