Nucleation of Water: From Fundamental Science to Atmospheric and Additional Applications provides a comprehensive accounting of the current state-of-the-art regarding the nucleation of water. It covers vapor-liquid, liquid-vapor, liquid-ice and vapor-ice transitions and describes basic kinetic and thermodynamic concepts in a manner understandable to researchers working on specific applications. The main focus of the book lies in atmospheric phenomena, but it also describes engineering and biological applications. Bubble nucleation, although not of major atmospheric relevance, is included for completeness. This book presents a single, go-to resource that will help readers understand the breadth and depth of nucleation, both in theory and in real-world examples. Offers a single, comprehensive work on water nucleation, including cutting- edge research on ice, cloud and bubble nucleation Written primarily for atmospheric scientists, but it also presents the theories in such a way that researchers in other disciplines will find it useful Written by one of the world's foremost experts on ice nucleation
INTRODUCTION TO AEROSOL MODELLING Introduction to Aerosol Modelling: From Theory to Code An aerosol particle is defined as a solid or liquid particle suspended in a carrier gas. Whilst we often treat scientific challenges in a siloed way, aerosol particles are of interest across many disciplines. For example, atmospheric aerosol particles are key determinants of air quality and climate change. Knowledge of aerosol physics and generation mechanisms is key to efficient fuel delivery and drug delivery to the lungs. Likewise, various manufacturing processes require optimal generation, delivery and removal of aerosol particles in a range of conditions. There is a natural tendency for the aerosol ...

In the summer of 1783, an unusual dry fog descended upon large parts of the northern hemisphere. The fog brought with it bloodred sunsets, a foul sulfuric odor, and a host of other peculiar weather events. Inspired by the Enlightenment, many naturalists attempted to find reasonable explanations for these occurrences. Between 8 June 1783 and 7 February 1784, a 27-kilometer-long fissure volcano erupted in the Icelandic highlands. It produced the largest volume of lava released by any volcanic eruption on planet Earth in the last millennium. In Iceland, the eruption led to the death of one-fifth of the population. The jetstream carried its volcanic gases further afield to Europe and beyond, whe...
Ihminen – tai juuri mikään elävä – ei selviäisi ilman vettä. Silti ajattelemme vettä hyvin vähän. Kokemuksemme vedestä rajoittuvat kodin vesipisteelle, sateeseen ja järvessä uimiseen. Suurin osa ihmisen ja veden välisestä vuorovaikutuksesta jää huomaamatta. Ismo Karhun Vauhko jumalolento – Kertomus vedestä keskittyy ihmisen ja veden kiehtovaan suhteeseen. Kirjassa matkustetaan Vienan vedenjakajalta kohti länttä ja merta. Samalla Karhu tekee kiinnostavia havaintoja veden ja ihmisen kanssakäymisestä. Näkökulma laajenee paikallisesta kansalliseksi ja edelleen globaaliksi. Karhu analysoi vettä monin silmin: tekniikan, ympäristövaikutusten, talouden, taiteiden ja t...
