| Abstract
|
:
|
"Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series. This book tells of: Dynamics of stratospheric polar vortices ; Chemistry and dynamics of the ozone hole ; Role of solar variability in the stratosphere ; Effect of gravity waves in the stratosphere ; Importance of atmospheric annular modes. This volume will be of interest to graduate students and scientists who wish to learn more about the stratosphere. It will also be useful to atmospheric science departments as a textbook for classes on the stratosphere."--Publisher's website
