Description
Reinforcing basic concepts with everyday, easy-to-grasp examples, this highly regarded volume remains the standard introduction to meteorology and the atmosphere – components, problems, and applications. The Eleventh Edition retains hallmark Tarbuck/Lutgens features: a friendly, largely non-technical narrative, timely coverage of recent atmospheric events, and carefully crafted artwork by leading science illustrator Dennis Tasa. As in the previous editions, the authors continueto provide current reports on changing meteorological patterns e.g. the tornado outbreak in 24 US states on “Super Tuesday” in 2008. The chapter on climate change is updated. The book is useful for a basic course in meteorology.
