"This book explores a discord within climate change policy and politics, using a range of cases to analyze how different political systems and power inequalities shape climate action. It will be of interest to researchers of local, national, and international climate policy, and specialists in climate governance"--

Tackling climate change requires long-term commitment to action, yet an array of influential parties with vested interests stand opposed to this. How best to engage and balance these positions for positive change is of increasing concern for advocates and policy makers. Exploring a discord within climate change policy and politics, this insightful volume critically examines the competing assumptions and arguments underpinning political 'stability' versus 're/politicization' as a means of securing effective, long-term climate action. A range of cases exemplify the different political systems and power structures that underpin this antagonism, spanning geographical approaches, examples of non-governmental action, and key industries in the global economy. Authored by an international team of scholars, this book will be of interest to researchers of local, national, and international legislation, specialists on climate governance policy, and other scholars involved in climate action. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Stability and Politicization in Climate Governance

States of Transition takes a deep dive into the multiple roles states are playing in supporting transitions to a more sustainable world and where there is scope for their transformation. Going beyond unhelpful binaries - which cast the state as the central problem or the all-encompassing solution to ecological and social crises - it explores diverse current state practice across key domains: military, democracy, welfare, entrepreneurial, industrial, and foreign policy. It builds on theoretical resources from a range of disciplines, as befits the challenge of making sense of these diverse aspects of state power. It moves beyond existing analysis of the 'environmental state' to explore scope for a 'transition state' to emerge, capable of corralling and transforming all aspects of state power behind the goal of responding to the existential threat of planetary collapse. The book will be invaluable to students, academics, and practitioners concerned with environmental policy and sustainability.

This book examines how cities address environmental concerns, identifying key the strategies used and suggesting solutions for future action. It is invaluable reading for students, researchers, and policymakers in environmental sustainability, climate change, urban studies and planning, and public policy.

Basics of Air Pollution: Sources and Monitoring delivers a comprehensive reference for those seeking understanding of air pollution basics, including sources, transformations, and effects. The book covers a full range of related topics-from the very basics to the advanced level-not typically found in other books on air pollution. The book explains concepts using case studies and offers good comprehensive understanding of air pollution sources, transformations and effects. The book offers relevant fundamental knowledge which can facilitate future in-depth studies aimed at solving real world problems.

Physics of the Tropical Atmosphere and Tropical Cyclones

This book brings together insights from over a hundred experts in meteorology and climatology to expand existing knowledge of climate variability across the various timescales that shape weather patterns in South America, Africa, Australasia, and Antarctica. It describes the atmospheric circulation in the tropics and southern extratropics and puts into perspective its northern counterpart. The discovery of the different types of El Niño Southern Oscillation, Indian Ocean Dipole, and trends in the Southern Annular Mode are a few examples of phenomena discussed. The chapters also examine the role of the oceans in the climate, highlight the impact of extreme events and observed changes, explore future projections in a warming world, and discuss the current state and challenges of climate modelling. This book will be a key resource for researchers and graduate students in meteorology, atmospheric science, and climatology, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere.

Synoptic Analysis and Forecasting: An Introductory Toolkit, Second Edition provides a bridge between early meteorology courses and more advanced courses in synoptic-dynamic analysis. This valuable reference also imparts qualitative weather analysis and forecasting tools and techniques to researchers and practitioners who require deeper foundational knowledge of weather forecasting. Sections introduce readers to surface weather instrumentation, observations, and plots, radiosondes and upper-air charts, a process-based guide to understanding the motion and intensity of cyclones, anticyclones, fronts, and the diagnosis of vertical motion and associated large-scale weather conditions. After learning about the applications of modern satellite and radar imagery to synoptic analysis and forecasting, readers are provided a complete three-dimensional picture of the troposphere through thermodynamic diagram and sounding analysis techniques. This invaluable resource offers strong support for building qualitative weather observation, analysis, and forecasting skills.
