| Περίληψη: | This textbook describes various physical, radiative, dynamical and chemical processes involved in the coupling between the Stratosphere and Troposphere. This textbook is intended for graduate students in middle atmosphere stratospheric physics, dynamic and atmospheric science courses and will be useful to all research workers in meteorology, aeronomy, atmospheric physics, atmospheric chemistry and environmental sciences. Current areas of interest, such as Antarctic ozone hole, global warming effects on stratospheric cooling are also addressed. Stratosphere troposphere exchange, transport processes in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere and the role of stratosphere on tropospheric weather systems are presented. The information provided in the textbook will have broad applicability in other branches of atmospheric science, and will be of interest to those studying such areas as climate change, extreme weather events, and potential for the prediction of tropospheric weather systems. A comprehensive stratosphere troposphere coupling textbook Highly illustrated with diagrams and figures Includes latest developments and provides problem sets A valuable reference for all atmospheric scientists 2008 ASLI Choice Award ! Springer is proud to announce that Stratosphere Troposphere Interactions has been awarded for 2008 ASLI Choice, this is an award for the best book of 2008 in the fields of meteorology, climatology, atmospheric sciences. K. Mohankumar is Dean of the Faculty of Marine Sciences, Cochin University of Science and Technology, India.
