On-line text book
I recently came across the following text book on-line:
------------------------------------------------ Practical Meteorology: An Algebra-based Survey of Atmospheric Science ------------------------------------------------ It's a 938-page tome that's freely available at https://www.eoas.ubc.ca/books/Practical_Meteorology/ There's quite a lot of mathematics in it but for those who find the maths a bit challenging the text is still very understandable. It's an excellent resource and the author is to be commended for making it freely available. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. http://peakdistrictweather.org Twitter: @TideswellWeathr |

I have liked this book for sometime at least for the more motivated of my students .... Stull's postgrad boundary layer book is great too but not for teaching non specialist undergrads! Cheers, Andy |
