  • Thermodynamics of Atmospheres and Oceansby Judith A. Curry; Peter J. Webster

    Elsevier 1999; US$ 109.00

    Atmospheric and climatological studies are becoming more and more important in day-to-day living. Winds and ocean current owe their existence to the thermodynamic imbalances that arise from the differential heating of the Earth and air by the sun. Accounting for heat exchanges with the atmosphere and ocean is essential in any predictive model of the ocean and/or atmosphere. Thermodynamic feedback processes in the atmosphere and ocean are critical to understanding the overall stability of the Earth's climate and climate change. Water and its phase changes make the thermodynamics of the atmosphere and ocean uniquely interesting and challenging. Written by leading scientists in the field, Thermodynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans incorporates... more...

  • Thermal Physics of the Atmosphereby Maarten Ambaum

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2010; US$ 79.95

    Thermal Physics of the Atmosphere offers a concise and thorough introduction on how basic thermodynamics naturally leads on to advanced topics in atmospheric physics. The book starts by covering the basics of thermodynamics and its applications in atmospheric science.  The later chapters describe major applications, specific to more specialized areas of atmospheric physics, including vertical structure and stability, cloud formation, and radiative processes.  The book concludes with a discussion of non-equilibrium thermodynamics as applied to the atmosphere. This book provides a thorough introduction and invaluable grounding for specialised literature on the subject.  Introduces a wide range of areas associated with atmospheric... more...

  • Warming to Ecocideby Alan J. Sangster

    Springer 2011; US$ 169.00

    If a future generation of humans, dwelling on an impoverished hot dying planet, were to indict the post second world war generations for ecocide, would they have a good case? To succeed they would have to be able to show that mankind had enough comprehension of the science of global warming to have understood the warnings, but preferred to ignore them. Warming to Ecocide argues that the science which underpins climate change is primarily thermodynamics, which is shown to be much more embedded than is commonly appreciated in the energetic processes on Earth. It is not just the science behind steam propulsion. In fact it is demonstrated that equilibrium thermodynamics can provide full explanations for the basis processes of life such as photosynthesis... more...
