Fundamentals of Atmospheric Radiation; Contents; Preface; 1 Emission: The Birth of Photons; 2 Absorption: The Death of Photons; 3 Scattering: The Life of Photons; 4 Radiometry and Photometry: What you Get and What you See; 5 Multiple Scattering: Elementary; 6 Multiple Scattering: Advanced; 7 Polarization: The Hidden Variable; 8 Meteorological Optics: The Reward; Index.
Meeting the need for teaching material suitable for students of atmospheric science and courses on atmospheric radiation, this textbook covers the fundamentals of emission, absorption, and scattering of electromagnetic radiation from ultraviolet to infrared and beyond. Much of the contents applies to planetary atmosphere, with graded discussions providing a thorough treatment of subjects, including single scattering by particles at different levels of complexity. The discussion of the simple multiple scattering theory introduces concepts in more advanced theories, such that the more complicate.
