"Elementary Climate Physics is an introductory text that covers climate-related topics at a level suitable for undergraduates in the physical sciences, and for graduate students and others requiring a quantitative introduction to the field. It aims to set out the basic mechanisms controlling climate, to apply relatively simple physics to the problem of climate change, and to provide a foundation for more advanced work. References to appropriate further reading at a higher level are provided, along with some sample examination questions."--Jacket.
