This is the first book to provide a comprehensive overview of climate change-related investigations carried out by Indian researchers through initiatives in southern high latitude regions.
As models of the Earth/atmosphere system and observations become ever more sophisticated, and concerns about climate change and societal impacts of extreme weather and its forecasting grow, understanding the role of clouds in the atmosphere is increasingly vital.
WINNER OF THE 2024 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR CONSERVATION FINANCIAL TIMES 2023 HIGHLIGHT'Helen Czerski weaves together physics and biology, history and science, in a beautifully poetic way.
Covers essential parts of cloud and precipitation physics and has been extensively rewritten with over 60 new illustrations and many new and up to date references.
Unknown to most people, there are innumerable microbial species that accomplish vital ecosystem functions while residing in a suspended state in the troposphere or resting on crop canopies.

Trends and Changes in Hydroclimatic Variables: Links to Climate Variability and Change discusses the change detection and trend analysis methods used to assess hydroclimatic variables in a changing climate.
The aim of the symposium was to gather fellow researchers, colleagues and friends of Professor William R Sears, a member of the National Academy of Science and the Academy of Engineering, on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
Remote sounding of the atmosphere has proved to be a fruitful method of obtaining global information about the atmospheres of the earth and other planets.
This book contains 22 peer-reviewed articles that cover a spectrum of contemporary subjects relevant to atmospheric sciences, with specific applications to the Asia-Pacific region.
Vortex Dynamics, Statistical Mechanics, and Planetary Atmospheres introduces the reader with a background in either fluid mechanics or statistical mechanics to the modeling of planetary atmospheres by barotropic and shallow-water models.
The Jew of Malta Christopher Marlowe - The spirit of Machiavelli presides over The Jew of Malta, in which the title character relentlessly plots to maintain and extend his political influence and wealth.
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.

For junior/senior and graduate-level courses in Aerodynamics, Mechanical Engineering, and Aerospace Engineering Revised to reflect the technological advances and modern application in Aerodynamics, the 6th Edition of Aerodynamics for Engineers merges fundamental fluid mechanics, experimental techniques, and computational fluid dynamics techniques to build a solid foundation for students in aerodynamic applications from low-speed through hypersonic flight.
Since its first appearance in 1941, this book has remained, through various editions and reprintings, the standard, indeed the only modern work in English in its field.
The assessment and prevention of risks inherent to natural phenomena is of topical interest to the scientific community and other authorities dealing with territorial management.
The climate over the Indian subcontinent is influenced by complex interactions between the atmosphere, ocean, and land, along with human interventions that are influencing heat extremes, changing monsoon patterns, sea-level rise, and posing serious threats to lives and livelihoods among populations in India.
This book highlights climate as a complex physical, chemical, biological, and geological system, in perpetual change, under astronomical, predominantly, solar control.
