{"product_id":"climate-data-and-resources-edward-linacre-9780415057035","title":"Climate Data and Resources: A Reference and Guide","description":"Climate may be defined as the synthesis of long-term atmospheric conditions characteristic of a particular place. Consequently, the study of climate relies on sustained records of daily values. However, both location and equipment are variables and precise measurements may not be possible. There are occasions when an estimate rather than a measurement is necessary, as when gauging the unrecorded past or future. The value of applied climatology - the study of the impact of climate - lies in the analysis of measurements and estimates within the context of change. Climate Data and Resources provides a review of the theory and practice underlying current climactic research. The author describes the nature of atmospheric resources - solar radiation, wind and precipitation - and describes the specification, obtaining and treatment of climate data. Fully referenced and illustrated, Climate Data and Resources should prove a valuable resource to all those interested in the collection and analysis of climatic data.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edward Linacre\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415057035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415057035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/02\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.80d","brand":"Edward Linacre","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48136040579327,"sku":"9780415057035","price":79.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f6feb9e4-dfee-44d0-ab34-bfb581f2bd8d.jpg?v=1770160110","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/climate-data-and-resources-edward-linacre-9780415057035","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
