Spacecraft-Environment Interactions
ISBN: 9780521607568 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Spacecraft interact with the space environment in ways that may affect the operation of the spacecraft as well as any scientific experiments that are carried out from the spacecraft platform. In turn the study of these interactions provides information on the space environment. The adverse environmental effects, such as the effect of the radiation belts on electronics, and spacecraft charging from the magnetospheric plasma, means that designers need to understand interactive phenomena to be able to effectively design spacecraft. This has led to the new discipline of spacecraft-environment...

The Earth's Plasmasphere
ISBN: 9780521430913 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The plasmasphere is the vast "doughnut-shaped" region of the magnetosphere that forms a cold thermal plasma cloud encircling the Earth, terminating abruptly at a radial distance of 30,000 km over a sharp discontinuity known as the plasmapause. This is the first monograph to describe the historical development of ideas concerning the plasmasphere by the pioneering researchers themselves. The monograph brings our picture of the plasmasphere up to date by presenting experimental and observational results of the past three decades, and mathematical and physical theories proposed to explain its...

Antarctic Meteorology and Climatology
ISBN: 9780521465601 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 422 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is a comprehensive survey of the climatology and meteorology of Antarctica. The first section of the book reviews the methods by which we can observe the Antarctic atmosphere and presents a synthesis of climatological measurements. In the second section, the authors consider the processes that maintain the observed climate, from large-scale atmospheric circulation to small-scale processes. The final section reviews our current knowledge of the variability of Antarctic climate and the possible effects of "greenhouse" warming. The authors stress links among the Antarctic atmosphere,...

Atmospheric Dynamics
ISBN: 9780521616966 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In his book, John Green presents a unique personal insight into the fundamentals of fluid mechanics and atmospheric dynamics. Generations of students have benefited from his lectures, and this book, many years in the making, is the result of his wide teaching and research experience. The theory of fluid flow has developed to such an extent that very complex mathematics and models are currently used to describe it, but many of the fundamental results follow from relatively simple considerations: these classic principles are derived here in a novel, distinctive, and at times even idiosyncratic,...

Theory of Space Plasma Microinstabilities
ISBN: 9780521437486 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The ionized material that constitutes plasma permeates almost all of the universe beyond the planets and their atmospheres and satellites. This book describes the linear theory of many different waves and instabilities that may propagate in a collisionless plasma. Electrostatic and electromagnetic fluctuations and a variety of instability sources are considered. Applications of the theory are discussed with respect to spacecraft observations in the solar wind, terrestrial magnetosheath, magnetosphere and magnetotail and at the bow shock and magnetopause. Tables at the end of most chapters...

Introduction to Circulating Atmospheres
ISBN: 9780521429351 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book gives an account of the modern view of the global circulation of the atmosphere. It accounts for the observed nature of the circulation and theories and simple models of the mechanisms that drive it. Early chapters concentrate on the classical view of the global circulation, on the processes that generate atmospheric motions, and on the dynamical constraints that modify them. Later chapters develop more recent themes including low frequency variability and the circulation of other planetary atmospheres. Each chapter includes a set of problems.
