Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Atmospheric dynamics is governed by complex mathematical relationships that have been extensively modeled and discussed in recent decades. The aim of this chapter is to quickly recall the basic governing equations along with their main applications in order to better understand Modeling references. In the bibliography, a set of reference handbooks is provided for an exhaustive presentation of these topics.
