Springer Praxis Books: Formation, Processes and Impacts

Kondratyev, Kirill Ya.; Ivlev, Lev S.; Krapivin, Vladimir F.; Varostos, Costas A.

This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of how aerosols form in the atmosphere through in situ processes as well as via transport from the surface (dust storms, seas spray, biogenic emissions, forest fires etc.). Such an analysis has been followed by the consideration of both observation data (various field observational experiments) and numerical modeling results to assess climate impacts of aerosols bearing in mind that these impacts are the most significant uncertainty in studying natural and anthropogenic causes of climate change.
