Weather, water, and climate. How we feel, how productive we are,
even our sheer existence, depends on these three things. The United
States economic activity varies annually by 1.7% due to
weather-that is more than $500 billion dollars each year! Weather
applications on mobile devices are the second most popular 'apps' -
more popular than social networking, maps, music,and news. In
Treading on Thin Air, Dr. Elizabeth Austin, a world-renowned
atmospheric physicist, reveals how the climate is intimately tied
to our daily lives. The effects and impacts of weather on humans,
society and the planet are changing with the times. Dr. Austin will
demystify climate change, revealing what is really happening with
our climate and why, whether it is El Nino, tornadoes, floods or
hurricanes. Weather and society are at its most fascinating at
extremes, and as Dr. Austin is one of a handful of forensic
meteorologists around the globe. She has been called upon to
investigate plane crashes, murders, wildfires, avalanches, even
bombing cases. Drawing upon her rich experiences, Austin's Treading
on Thin Air promises to be an enlightening and informative journey
through the wild word of weather.
