About this book

This volume is concerned with the physics and the application of air pollution modeling on scales up to about 50 km. Its eight chapters, comprising the diverse points of view of seven authors, remain substantially in their original, lecture-note form. The result is not a smoothly flowing monograph but instead a richly textured, lively collection of the seasoned thoughts and perspectives of experienced researchers and practitioners.
