From the Back Cover
Key Benefit: The book emphasizes a non-mathematical understanding of physical principles as a vehicle for learning about atmospheric processes. Additionally, difficult-to-visualize topics are reinforced with a series of software tutorials presented on a CD-ROM packaged with the book. Key Topics: Focuses on explanation about, rather than description of, the processes that produce Earth's weather and climate. Software tutorials are keyed to the following topics: Solar Geometry; Global Energy Balance; Atmospheric Moisture; Adiabatic Processes; The Coriolis Force; Atmospheric Forces and Motion; Wind and Pressure Aloft; Cyclones and Anti-Cyclones.
