 | An Introduction to Atmospheric Physics Product# 460684226 Selling for $84.95 "This book is addressed to those who wish to understand the relationship between atmospheric phenomena and the nature of matter as expressed in the principles of physics. The interesting atmospheric phenomena are more than applications of gravitation, of thermodynamics, of hydrodynamics, or of electrodynamics; and mastery of the results of controlled experiment and of the related theory alone does not imply an understanding of atmospheric phenomena. This distinction arises because the extent and the complexity of the atmosphere permit effects and interactions that are entirely negligible in the laboratory or are deliberately excluded from it. the objective of laboratory physics is, by isolating the relevant variables, to reveal the fundamental properties of matter; whereas the objective of atmospheric physics, or of any observational science, is to understand those phenomena that are characteristic of the whole system. For these reasons the exposition of atmospheric physics requires substantial extensions of classical physics. It also requires that understanding" |

 | METEOROLOGY Product# 460765555 Selling for $96.6 "'Meteorology , 2/e is an introduction to atmospheric science for science and non-science majors, covering all topics expected of an introductory text and organized and presented in a way that offers the instructor considerable flexibility regarding topic sequence. The text follows a unique investigative approach intended to teach the scientific method as well as meteorology. The authors have written the text to encourage this approach to learning: they pose numerous questions to the student, develop ideas bottom-up rather than explain phenomena from general principles, and attempt to assist each student in constructing his or her own map of meteorology." |
 | Understanding Weather and Climate Product# 460765647 Selling for $100 "This meteorology book focuses on explanation about the processes that produce Earth's weather and climate. It 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. Accompanying CD-ROM' is available featuring Tutorials, Interactive Exercises, and illustrative movie loops all keyed to the book. Also, this book includes up-to-date coverage of severe weather events For professionals in the meteorology field." |
