The Middle Atmosphere and its Evolution.- Chemical Concepts in the Atmosphere.- Dynamics and Transport.- Radiation.- Composition and Chemistry.- Ozone Perturbations.- The Ions.
Reviews of the Previous Edition:
"Aeronomy of the Middle Atmosphere is an interesting and
well-written overview of the current status of our knowledge of the
composition of the middle atmosphere and the basic radiative,
dynamical and photochemical processes which maintain it. I am not
aware of another book which addresses the middle atmosphere from
such a broad interdisciplinary perspective[…] Many atmospheric
scientists will wish to add this book to their personal
collections."
(Bulletin American Meteorological Society) "[…]an important book at
the right time. It is intended as an introduction to the field of
middle atmosphere chemistry and physics and as a reference book for
researchers in this area as well. There is no doubt that it can
fulfil both tasks very well.[…] Rich and solid material is
presented for the evaluation of thermal and photochemical effects
of radiation.[…]outstanding and stimulating review[…] The authors
themselves have made numerous important contributions to this
development, a fact well reflected by the content and quality of
their review."
(Beiträge zur Physik der Atmosphäre) From the reviews of the third
edition: "The book provides an excellent introduction to the
subject and a good summary of the state of knowledge … . Most or
all chapters have been carefully updated, and a major addition to
the current edition is a more complete discussion of natural and
anthropogenic ozone perturbations. It deserves to be on the shelf
of any serious graduate student or researcher with an interest in
atmospheric chemistry and physics. … overall the book is a very
important addition to the atmospheric literature." (Lon Hood,
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, February, 2007)
