Originally published in 1985, this volume of essays was compiled in
honour of Gordon Manley, a major and distinctive twentieth-century
figure in climatology. The range and scope of the topics covered
reflect the eclectic interests of Manley, whose orientation was
always towards the importance of climate and its impact on mankind.
The state of the art of climatic change is considered at different
scales by the contributors: from instrumental records on a local
scale from Durham and Manchester to discussions on the regional and
continental scale. Methodological problems relating to climatic
change are treated. The effects of climate and climatic change on
plant distribution, disease vectors and agricultural pests are also
considered.
