A Brief Overview of Atmospheric and Space Sciences -- 2. Introduction to Atmospheric Physics -- 3. Some Mathematical Basics: Conservation Laws -- 4. Earth’s Atmosphere and Geospace Environment -- 5. Waves in Terrestrial and Planetary Atmospheres -- 6. Atmospheric Circulation and Dynamical Processes -- Physical Constants and Parameters -- Useful Mathematical Tools -- Glossary -- Index N2 - The SpringerBriefs on Atmospheric and Space Sciences in two volumes presents a concise and interdisciplinary introduction to the basic theory, observation & modeling of atmospheric and ionospheric coupling processes on Earth. The goal is to contribute toward bridging the gap between meteorology, aeronomy, and planetary science. In addition recent progress in several related research topics, such atmospheric wave coupling and variability, is discussed. Volume 1 will focus on the atmosphere, while Volume 2 will present the ionosphere— the plasma environment. Volume 1 is aimed primarily at (research) students and researchers that would like to gain quick insight in atmospheric sciences and current research. It also is a useful tool for professors who would like to develop a course in atmospheric physics UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-21581-5 ER -
