Beschreibung
This book provides a sound introduction to the basic physical processes that dominate the workings of the Earth, its atmosphere and hydrosphere. It systematically introduces the physical processes involved in the Earth's systems without assuming an advanced physics or mathematical background. * * Offers an integrated approach to the study of earth, marine and atmospheric environmental sciences, reflecting current trends in undergraduate courses. * Natural examples of physical processes, rather than abstract physics and maths, are used throughout to illustrate the scientific principles involved. Artwork from the book is available to instructors online at www.blackwellpublishing.com/leeder.
Rezensionen
"[The book] integrates a large amount of various knowledge, [it] will be an outstanding reference for students, lecturers, and researchers ... .Strongly recommended for all geoscientists."
"Particularly intriguing is this book's refreshing tone. The fascination and joy that the authors perceive from their scientific experience and endeavour is being reflected on every page."
"Physical Processes in Earth and Environmental Sciences uses a pleasant and transparant format to explain complex processes in earth-system science. The text reads like a knife cuts through butter, it contains relevant historical information, anecdotes and side steps, and it is accompanied by a large number of explanatory line drawings and photographs." (Journal of Sedimentary Research) "[The book] integrates a large amount of various knowledge, [it] will be an outstanding reference for students, lecturers, and researchers ... .Strongly recommended for all geoscientists."
