Features: The upper part of this book systematically introduces the basic knowledge of fluid mechanics related to environmental issues, with a focus on fluid mechanics branches relevant to the flow of the lower atmosphere and the transport and diffusion processes of pollutants within it. The lower part of the book, "Physical Simulation of Atmospheric Diffusion," explores a cutting-edge field of environmental fluid mechanics—studying the flow and diffusion of the lower atmosphere through model experiments conducted in environmental wind tunnels (as well as towing tanks and open-channel flumes)—and systematically discusses the theoretical foundations and technical principles of experimental similarity. This book can serve as a reference for scientists and engineers in atmospheric environment, applied meteorology, and related fields, as well as a textbook for graduate students and senior undergraduate students in these disciplines.
