This 2007 edition of Human Impacts on Weather and Climate examines the scientific and political debates surrounding anthropogenic impacts on the Earth's climate and presents the most recent theories, data and modeling studies. The book discusses the concepts behind deliberate human attempts to modify the weather through cloud seeding, as well as inadvertent modification of weather and climate on the regional scale. The natural variability of weather and climate greatly complicates our ability to determine a clear cause-and-effect relationship to human activity. The authors describe the basic theories and critique them in simple and accessible terms. This fully revised edition will be a valuable resource for undergraduate and graduate courses in atmospheric and environmental science, and will also appeal to policy makers and general readers interested in how humans are affecting the global climate.
The 3rd edition of "Mesoscale Meteorological Modeling" is a fully
revised resource for researchers and practitioners in the growing
field of meteorological modeling at the mesoscale. Pielke has
enhanced the new edition by quantifying model capability
(uncertainty) by a detailed evaluation of the assumptions of
parameterization and error propagation. Mesoscale models are
applied in a wide variety of studies, including weather prediction,
regional and local climate assessments, and air pollution
investigations.
