Preface -- Author biography -- Introduction -- Composition of the atmosphere -- Observed vertical structure

This text provides a self-contained introductory graduate-level course in atmospheric physics for students of meteorology or physics. Assuming no prior knowledge other than basic mechanics and calculus, the author offers a solid overview of how the atmosphere functions, including topics such as thermodynamics, cloud microphysics, atmospheric radiation and remote sensing. Includes worked examples to aid understanding.

Professional and scholarly.

Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Rodrigo Caballero is a researcher in the Department of Meteorology at Stockholm University where his research focuses on the role of the atmosphere within the climate system, with an emphasis on understanding the fundamental underlying mechanisms of this complex system, including interactions between atmosphere, ocean, ice and the biosphere.
