Rezension zu „An Introduction to Dynamic Meteorology “
"The book is very clearly and well written...the author succeeds in presenting the fundamentals while providing a motivating discussion on the full scope of dynamic meteorology and its applications." -Jorg Matschullat, Interdisciplinary Environmental Research Center, in ENVIRONMENTAL GEOLOGY, VOL. 49, MARCH 2006 Praise for previous edition: "...reflects the full scope of modern dynamic meteorology, while providing a presentation of the fundamentals." -BULLETIN AMERICAN METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY "The careful presentation of introductory material and clear discussion of dynamical principles make this an excellent basic account of dynamical meteorology." -JOURNAL OF FLUID MECHANICS
