World Scientific Series on Meteorology of East Asia - Vol. 3
OBSERVATION, THEORY AND MODELING OF ATMOSPHERIC VARIABILITY
Selected Papers of Nanjing Institute of Meteorology Alumni in Commemoration of Professor Jijia Zhang
edited by Xun Zhu (Johns Hopkins University, USA), Xiaofan Li (NOAA, USA), Ming Cai (Florida State University, USA), Shuntai Zhou, Yuejian Zhu (NOAA, USA), Fei-Fei Jin (University of Hawaii, USA), Xiaolei Zou (Florida State University, USA) & Minghua Zhang (State University of New York, Stony Brook, USA)
This book contains tutorial and review articles as well as specific research letters that cover a wide range of topics: (1) dynamics of atmospheric variability from both basic theory and data analysis, (2) physical and mathematical problems in climate modeling and numerical weather prediction, (3) theories of atmospheric radiative transfer and their applications in satellite remote sensing, and (4) mathematical and statistical methods. The book can be used by undergraduates or graduate students majoring in atmospheric sciences, as an introduction to various research areas; and by researchers and educators, as a general review or quick reference in their fields of interest.
Contents:
- Dynamics of Atmospheric Variability
- Climate Modeling and Numerical
Weather Prediction
- Radiative Transfer and Remote Sensing
- Mathematical Method
Readership: Graduate students, academics and researchers in
meteorology/climatology, as well as East Asian weather-forecasting services.
