Weather and Climate Science (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781641161350)

Climate and weather studies are pursued by the respective branches of climatology and meteorology, which fall in the domain of atmospheric sciences. Climatology is the qualitative and quantitative study of long-term weather conditions and climate trends. Meteorology involves weather predictions and an analysis of atmospheric physics and chemistry. Different analog techniques can be used in climatology for the prediction of short-term weather forecasting. Some of these techniques are El Nino-Southern Oscillation, Madden-Julian oscillation, North Atlantic oscillation, etc. Weather and climate prediction is useful in agriculture, for determining the distribution of radioactive aerosols and gases in the atmosphere, for analyzing industrial pollution dispersion, etc. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of weather and climate studies, which will be crucial for the progress of these fields in the future. Also included in this book is a detailed explanation of the various principles and applications of meteorology and climatology. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals alike.
