Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to weather science. Defined as the study of meteorological phenomena, weather science has historically included astronomy and related topics not fully understood by ancient thinkers, like comets and shooting stars, which we now know originate beyond Earth's atmosphere. These phenomena fueled speculation about interconnectedness between terrestrial and celestial events that the author describes in an engaging historical overview. Through accessible, descriptive language, the author guides readers through the discovery of barometers and their role as groundbreaking tools in the science of weather prediction. Concepts like pressure, temperature, rainfall, wind direction, and cloud formations are all carefully explained and illustrated with diagrams and charts. Weather science is also positioned within the context of broader scientific disciplines like geography and astronomy, reinforcing the interconnected nature of the natural world.
