Thermodynamics of the Atmosphere: A Course in Theoretical Meteorology

Written for graduate students and researchers in meteorology and related sciences, this textbook encourages the comprehension of the mathematical theory. While most meteorological textbooks only present equilibrium thermodynamics, this volume also introduces the linear theory of non-equilibrium and provides the necessary background for more advanced studies. Each chapter ends with a set of exercises for which answers are given at the end of the book.
