Radiation in the Atmosphere: A Course in Theoretical Meteorology

by Wilford Zdunkowski, Thomas Trautmann, Andreas Bott

This book presents the theory and applications of radiative transfer in the atmosphere. It is written for graduate students and researchers in the fields of meteorology and related sciences. The book begins with important basic definitions of the radiative transfer theory. It presents the hydrodynamic derivation of the radiative transfer equation and the principles of variance. The authors examine in detail various quasi-exact solutions of the radiative...
