About This Book

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
