Experiments with Weather and Climate

by John Bassett

Book Overview

Although weather forecasters today gather information from modern equipment such as radar and satellite photography, they still also use methods that have been around for hundreds of years. This book looks at the latest technology and shows young meteorologists how to make some of the traditional measuring instruments for themselves. A troubleshooting section and step-by-step instructions ensure experimental success.
