内容説明

For introductory courses in Meteorology and Weather & Climate. A first-rate textbook and inspired technology tutorials work together to engage students in the process of learning about atmospheric behavior. The authors use everyday occurrences to illustrate meteorology and climatology. Dynamic illustrations from the book come to life in the fully integrated student website, where a narrator guides students through animated tutorials, video footage and satellite loops of atmospheric phenomena.
