Download or read book First Principles of Meteorology and Air Pollution written by Mihalis Lazaridis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-18 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 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 into the atmosphere to the human health effects as the final event, is necessary for the prognosis of potential risk to humans from specific chemical compounds and mixtures of them. It fills a gap in the literature by providing a solid grounding in the first principles of meteorology and air pollution, making it particularly useful for undergraduate students. Its broad scope makes it a valuable text in many related disciplines, containing a comprehensive and integrated methodology to study the first principles of air pollution, meteorology, indoor air pollution, and human exposure. Problem-solving exercises help to reinforce concepts.

Book excerpt: Air Pollution Meteorology is concerned with the behaviour of pollutants once they are emitted into the atmosphere. This includes natural releases, deliberate industrial emissions and accidental spills. The emphasis is on industrial emissions but the authors also discuss ways of analysing and predicting the dispersal of all atmospheric emissions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Air Pollution written by R. S. Scorer and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air Pollution presents the fundamental mechanisms whereby pollution is diffused and transported in the atmosphere. This book aims to provide practitioners a correct basis for their decisions. Organized into seven chapters, this book starts with an overview of the diurnal variation of heat received and lost by the ground under clear sky. This text then describes the concept and interesting effects of fumigation, which is the sudden increase in low level pollution in the morning. Other chapters examine the mechanism of high level inversions, which set a limit to the upward dispersal of pollution and influence the effects of large sources of pollution. This book discusses as well the effects caused by valleys and sloping ground in low level accumulation of pollution. The final chapter deals with the repercussions of air pollution on health and damage to materials. This book is a valuable resource for industrial engineers, environmentalists, and scientists.

Download or read book Environmental Meteorology written by B. Padmanabha Murty and published by I. K. International Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2004 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applications of meteorological principles to environmental problems, though broadly known, are neither widely understood nor studied in detail. With increasing awareness of environmental status and for sustainable development without environmental degradation, much care is being taken, particularly in respect of atmospheric environment. Even though Environmental Meteorology forms part of the curriculum of M.Sc. (Environmental Science) in universities there is no comprehensive textbook available on the subject. This book, encompassing all the aspects of Environmental Meteorology, is being brought forth sensing that very lacuna. Besides being used as a textbook, it would also serve as a reference book to Environmental Experts as well as Scientists/Engineers in State and Central Pollution Control Boards, as also industries like Indian Oil Corporation, National Thermal Power Corporation and the likes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alarming consequences of global climate change have highlighted the need to take urgent steps to combat the causes of air pollution. Hence, understanding the Earth's atmosphere is a vital component in Man's emerging quest for developing sustainable modes of behaviour in the 21st century. Written by a team of expert scientists, the Handbook of Atmospheric Science provides a broad and up-to-date account of our understanding of the natural processes that occur within the atmosphere. It examines how Man’s activities have had a detrimental effect on the climate, and how measures may be implemented in order to modify these activities. The book progresses through chapters covering the principles of atmospheric science and the current problems of air pollution at the urban, regional and global scales, to the tools and applications used to understand air pollution. The Handbook of Atmospheric Science offers an excellent overview of this multi-disciplinary subject and will prove invaluable to both students and researchers of atmospheric science, air pollution and global change.
