Atmospheric Radiative Transfer

Below are links to draft chapters of 'A Primer on Atmospheric Radiative Transfer'. I would welcome feedback on Chapters 3 and 8 such as identifying

• errors of fact,
• parts of the text that are unclear, self contradictory or otherwise poor,
• typographic, spelling or grammatical errors.

If you attempt the questions and would like to check your answer then please email me for the solutions. My contact address is r.grainger@physics.ox.ac.uk
