Sommario/riassunto

Unter welchen Bedingungen können die Gleichstellung der Geschlechter und allgemein eine soziale Geschlechtergerechtigkeit in Wissenschaft und Forschung erreicht werden? Welche konkret wirksamen Maßnahmen gibt es, auch z.T. gegenläufige Praktiken auszuhebeln? Das Buch wendet sich an Praktiker*innen und Forscher*innen gleichermaßen, die sich sowohl über bekannte Hindernisse und deren mögliche Umgehung als auch über neueste Erkenntnisse zu europäischen Gleichstellungsstrategien informieren wollen.  Under what conditions can gender equality and social gender justice in science and research in general be achieved? What concrete and effective measures are there to undermine some contrary practices? The book is aimed at practitioners and researchers alike who want to find out about known obstacles and how they can be circumvented as well as about the latest findings on European gender equality strategies.

Sommario/riassunto

This book is dedicated to the atmosphere of our planet, and discusses



historical and contemporary achievements in meteorological science and technology for the betterment of society. The book explores many significant atmospheric phenomena and physical processes from the local to global scale, as well as from the perspective of short and long-term time scales, and links these processes to various applications in other scientific disciplines with linkages to meteorology. In addition to addressing general topics such as climate system dynamics and climate change, the book also discusses atmospheric boundary layer, atmospheric waves, atmospheric chemistry, optics/photometeors, electricity, atmospheric modeling and numeric weather prediction. Through its interdisciplinary approach, the book will be of interest to researchers, students and academics in meteorology and atmospheric science, environmental physics, climate change dynamics, air pollution and human health impacts of atmospheric aerosols. .
