Long description:

This book is an interdisciplinary and accessible guide to environmental physics. It allows readers to gain a more complete understanding of physical process and their interaction with ecological ones underpin important environmental issues.

The book covers a wide range of topics within environmental physics, including:

â€¢ natural and anthropogenic canopies, including forests, urban or wavy terrains;

â€¢ the fundamentals of heat transfer;

â€¢ atmospheric flow dynamics;

â€¢ global carbon budget;

â€¢ climate change; and

â€¢ the relevance of biochar as a global carbon sink.

Including solved exercises, numerous illustrations and tables, as well as an entire chapter focused on applications, book is of interest to researchers, students and industrial engineers alike.
