Aerosol Optics
Springer 2008; US$ 139.99Provides a comprehensive review of available techniques for the remote sensing of aerosols. Considering satellite remote sensing, this book also describes ground-based techniques. It describes techniques for the determination of the column concentration of aerosol particles and their optical sizing using spaceborne optical instrumentation. more...
Satellite Aerosol Remote Sensing over Land
Springer 2009; US$ 189.99Presenting a description of aerosol retrievals from satellite radiometers, this book looks at the 12-year record of global aerosol properties from Along-track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR-2) and Advanced Along-track Scanning Radiometer (AATSR). It shows how the algorithm uses the AATSR IR and visible wavebands for cloud detection. more...
Aerosols Handbook
CRC Press 2004; US$ 279.95With contributions from leading experts, Aerosols Handbook: Measurement, Dosimetry, and Health Effects presents the latest research in the field of aerosol science. more...
Atmospheric Aerosol Properties
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 249.99Provides a comprehensive analysis of how aerosols form in the atmosphere through in situ processes as well as via transport from the surface (dust storms, biogenic emissions, forest fires). Such an analysis has been followed by the consideration of both observation data and numerical modeling results to assess climate impacts of aerosols. more...
Pollution atmosphérique: Des processus à la modélisation (Ingénierie et développement durable) (French Edition)
Springer 2008; US$ 64.99Qualité de l'air, effet de serre, trou d'ozone, accidents chimiques ou nucléaires... Tous ces sujets ont en commun d'être étroitement liés à la composition chimique de l'atmosphère et à la dispersion atmosphérique de polluants. Cet ouvrage a pour objectif de donner les principaux éléments de compréhension des «pollutions atmosphériques». Quels sont... more...
Aerosol-Cloud-Climate Interactions
Elsevier Science 1993; US$ 83.95Aerosol and clouds play important roles in determining the earth's climate, in ways that we are only beginning to comprehend. In conjunction with molecular scattering from gases, aerosol and clouds determine in part what fraction of solar radiation reaches the earth's surface, and what fraction of the longwave radiation from the earth escapes to space.... more...
Absorption and Scattering of Light by Small Particles
Wiley 2008; US$ 163.00Absorption and Scattering of Light by Small Particles Treating absorption and scattering in equal measure, this self-contained, interdisciplinary study examines and illustrates how small particles absorb and scatter light. The authors emphasize that any discussion of the optical behavior of small particles is inseparable from a full understanding of... more...
First Principles of Meteorology and Air Pollution
Springer 2010; US$ 139.99This book's main objective is to decipher for the reader the main processes in the atmosphere and the quantification of air pollution effects on humans and the environment, through first principles of meteorology and modelling/measurement approaches. The understanding of the complex sequence of events, starting from the emission of air pollutants... more...
