Few sciences fascinate everyone as much as meteorology and climatology. Violent tornadoes and hurricanes uproot enormous trees in their unbridled fury. Heavy snowfalls bring entire cities to a hushed standstill. Great climatic changes create and then bear away vast continental ice sheets. The fleeting beauty of a rainbow, the astounding, delicate intricacy of each snowflake, make it plain to see why the mysteries of the phenomenon we call “weather” have intrigued us all since the dawn of the ages.

Meteorology has evolved in step with recent technological advances, and in view of the dizzying speed with which technology is progressing today, it has been necessary to create a new dictionary – exhaustive, accurate and up-to-date. Useful appendices and acronyms glossaries included.

Covers all areas of each field:
meteorology, climatology, weather prediction, tropical meteorology, mesometeorology, hurricane warning, tornado terminology, severe storms, bioclimatology, mountain meteorology, pluviometry
