Air Pollution Meteorology

Written by a distinguished international scientist, who has made fundamental contributions on the climatic relationship between air pollution and meteorology, the book provides a compendium of realistic examples of air pollution behaviour. After commencing with a general survey he takes us through a study of diffusion mechanisms including pollution from industrial chimneys and road traffic. Air pollution meteorology covers boundary layer scaling, pre-processing meteorological data, air quality management, urban meteorology, and atmospheric chemistry (oxides of nitrogen are central to ozone chemistry) with accounts of typical air pollution episodes and a brief dictionary of air pollutants. • Provides a compendium of realistic examples of air pollution behaviour • Includes a comprehensive study of diffusion mechanisms, including pollution from industrial chimneys and road traffic • Covers boundary layer scaling, pre-processing meteorological data, air quality management, urban meteorology, air pollution and atmospheric chemistry

A collection of cloudscapes illustrating the changes wrought in the sky by the variations in time of day, season and year. The authors travelled widely to collect their material and satellite pictures are also included. Richard Scorer compiled "Clouds of the World" and Arjen Verkaik has assembled the world's largest collection of sky and cloud photographs.
