This book introduces the reader to theoretical concepts and quantitative relations through qualitative descriptions based upon observations.

About this title

Review:

"This book carries all essential attributes of an introductory graduate/undergraduate text, but will serve scientists in applied meteorology as a source for information as well...The book is well written and can be recommended highly as introductory reading...I think, the book is well worth its price."
