  • Ball Lightning

    An Unsolved Problem in Atmospheric Physics

    by Mark Stenhoff ...
    Down comes a deluge of sonorous hail, Or prone-descending rain. Wide-rent, the clouds Pour a whole flood, and yet, its flame unquenched, Th’unconquerable lightning struggles through. Ragged and fierce, or in red whirling balls, And fires the mountains with redoubled rage. Black from the stroke, above, the smould’ring pine Stands a sad shattered trunk; and, stretched below, A lifeless group the ... Read more

  • Schumann Resonance for Tyros

    Essentials of Global Electromagnetic Resonance in the Earth–Ionosphere Cavity

    by Alexander Nickolaenko, Masashi Hayakawa ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Schumann resonance has been studied for more than half a century. The field became popular among researchers of the terrestrial environment using natural sources of electromagnetic radiation—lightning strokes, primarily—and now many Schumann observatories have been established around the world. A huge number of publications can be found in the literature, the most recent collection of which was ... Read more

  • Microphysics of Atmospheric Phenomena

    by Boris M. Smirnov ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book investigates elementary processes in the Earth’s atmosphere involving photons, electrons, ions, radicals, and aerosols. It is based on global atmospheric models such as the standard atmospheric model with averaged atmospheric parameters across the globe and over time, the Earth’s energetic balance, and the global electric circuit that allows to analyze fundamental atmospheric properties ...

  • Chemical Processes in Atmospheric Oxidation

    Laboratory Studies of Chemistry Related to Tropospheric Ozone

    Edited by Georges Le Bras ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Oxidation and removal of atmospheric constituents involve complex sequences of reactions which can lead to the production of photo-oxidants such as ozone. In order to understand and model these complex reaction sequences, it is necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of reaction mechanisms and accurate estimates of kinetic parameters for relevant gas-phase atmospheric reactions. This book ... Read more

  • Thermal Signatures of Heat Transfer Processes in the Earth’s Crust

    Translated by C. Newcomb ...
    by Christoph Clauser ...
    Series Book 85 - Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences
    This book deals with the signatures left by geodynamic proceses in the temperature field of the Earth's crust. First, it introduces briefly the established, indirect methods for interpreting the present termperature field and methods for reconstructing the thermal fields of the geological past. Then the spatial and temporal scales that are relevant for heat transport processes are described. This ... Read more

  • Climate Change Modeling Methodology

    Selected Entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology

    Edited by Philip J. Rasch ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The Earth's average temperature has risen by 1.4°F over the past century, and computer models project that it will rise much more over the next hundred years, with significant impacts on weather, climate, and human society. Many climate scientists attribute these increases to the build up of greenhouse gases produced by the burning of fossil fuels and to the anthropogenic production of short-lived ... Read more

  • Multi-Component Acoustic Characterization of Porous Media

    by Karel N. van Dalen ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The feasibility to extract porous medium parameters from acoustic recordings is investigated. The thesis gives an excellent discussion of our basic understanding of different wave modes, using a full-waveform and multi-component approach. Focus lies on the dependency on porosity and permeability where especially the latter is difficult to estimate. In this thesis, this sensitivity is shown for ... Read more
