Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a groundbreaking approach to weather prediction, offering a revolutionary method for understanding and forecasting atmospheric changes. The author builds upon the emerging field of numerical analysis, employing a system of finite differences to translate complex differential equations into a series of numerical calculations. This approach, reminiscent of the meticulous procedures used to generate astronomical almanacs, allows for the prediction of weather patterns based on observed initial conditions. The book meticulously details the author's methodology, using a simplified example to illustrate the process of calculating atmospheric pressure, velocity, and density over time. The author challenges traditional assumptions about weather forecasting, particularly the limitations of the geostrophic wind model, and advocates for a more nuanced understanding of atmospheric dynamics. This work, published in 1922, represents a significant departure from prevailing methods of weather prediction and anticipates the rise of modern computational meteorology.
