The second edition of this concise, affordable textbook is ideal
for curious undergraduate majors and non-majors taking a first
course in meteorology. The first two chapters introduce readers to
the main concepts and tools used to analyze weather patterns.
Chapters 3-8 provide a foundational understanding of the
fundamental processes taking place in the atmosphere, and in
Chapters 9-12 these physical concepts are applied to specific
weather phenomena. Weather concepts are then used in Chapters 13-15
to explain weather forecasting, air pollution, and the impact of
climate change on weather. Key concepts are illustrated through a
running case study of a single mid-latitude cyclone, providing
students with an opportunity to progressively develop their
understanding of weather phenomena with a familiar example
approached from multiple perspectives. This edition includes
expanded and updated coverage of precipitation types and formation,
satellite and radar technology, tornadoes, and more. It also
features thought-provoking end-of-chapter review questions, new
visual analysis exercises, an expanded test bank and nearly 100 new
figures.
