Atmospheric dynamics is a core component of all atmospheric science curricula. It is
concerned with how and why different classes of geophysical disturbances form, what
dictates their structure and movement, how the Earth s uneven surface impacts with them,
how they evolve to mature stage, how they interact with the background flow, how they
decay and how they collectively constrain the general circulation of the atmosphere.
Mankin Mak s
new textbook provides a self-contained course on atmospheric dynamics.
The first half of the book is suitable for undergraduates, and develops the physical,
dynamical and mathematical concepts at the fundamental level. The second half of the
book is aimed at more advanced students who are already familiar with the basics. The
contents have been developed from many years of the author s teaching at the University
of Illinois. The discussions are supplemented with schematics, weather maps and statistical
plots of the atmospheric general circulation. Students often find the connection between
theoretical dynamics and atmospheric observation somewhat tenuous, and this book
demonstrates a strong connection between the key dynamics and real observations in the
atmosphere, with many illustrative analyses in the simplest possible model settings.
Physical reasoning is shown to be even more crucial than mathematical skill in tackling
dynamical problems.
This textbook is an invaluable asset for courses in atmospheric dynamics for under¬
graduates as well as for graduate students and researchers in atmospheric science, ocean
science, weather forecasting, environmental science and applied mathematics. Some back¬
ground in mathematics and physics is assumed.
