Air Pollution: Measurement, Modelling and Mitigation, Fourth Edition van Abhishek Tiwary, Ian Williams is een Engelstalig gedrukt boek. Deze titel is geschikt voor studenten in het hoger onderwijs.
This established textbook offers a one-stop, comprehensive coverage of air pollution, all in an easy-reading and accessible style. The fourth edition, broadly updated and developed throughout, includes a brand-new chapter providing a broader overview to the topic for general reading, and presents fresh materials on air pollution modelling, mitigation and control, tailored to the needs of both amateur and specialist users. Retaining a quantitative perspective, the covered topics include: gaseous and particulate air pollutants, measurement techniques, meteorology and modelling, area sources, mobile sources, indoor air, effects on plants, materials, humans and animals, impact on climate change and ozone profiles and air quality legislations. This edition also includes a final chapter covering a suite of sampling and laboratory practical experiments that can be used for either classroom teachings, or as part of research projects. As with previous editions, the book is aimed to serve as a useful reading resource for upper-level undergraduate and postgraduate courses specialising in air pollution, with dedicated case studies at the end of each chapter, as well as a list of revision questions provided at the end as a complementary section.
This textbook comprehensively covers air pollution, now with: a heavily reworked introduction; new and overhauled chapters on source mitigation, noise and light pollution, and air quality experiments; extra materials for students-case studies, lab experiments for class practicals or project work, self-study exercises, plus further questions.
