Lecture 02 Vertical structure, P, ρ, T, V interrelation and energy transfer processes Lesson
Key issues:
- Study of: natural concentration, the background atmosphere
- Structure: pressure, density, and temperature with height
- Pressure & density: concentrations of gases
- Temperature: vertical distribution of gases absorb UV & IR
- P, ρ, T interrelation: equation of state with V
- Energy transfer processes: conduction, advection, radiation
- Composition: spatially & temporally varying of gases
- Main gases: sources & sinks, abundance, effect, pollution
