Midlatitude Synoptic Meteorologyby Gary Lackmann
Springer 2011; US$ 79.95
The past decade has been characterized by remarkable advances in meteorological observation, computing techniques, and data-visualization technology. Mesoscale Synoptic Meteorology links theoretical concepts to modern technology and facilitates the meaningful application of concepts, theories, and techniques using real data. As such, it both serves... more...

Fixing the Skyby James Rodger Fleming
Columbia University Press 2010; US$ 23.99
As the alarm over global warming spreads, radical ideas are taking hold: if cuts in greenhouse gas emissions are insufficient, let's use reflective nanoparticles to bounce sunlight directly into space or launch mirrors into orbit around the earth. We could make clouds thicker and brighter or surround Arctic sea ice with a huge plastic flotilla. Yet... more...

Storm and Cloud Dynamicsby William R. Cotton; George Bryan; Susan C. van den Heever
Elsevier Science 2010; US$ 87.95
This book focuses on the dynamics of clouds and of precipitating mesoscale meteorological systems. Clouds and precipitating mesoscale systems represent some of the most important and scientifically exciting weather systems in the world. These are the systems that produce torrential rains, severe winds including downburst and tornadoes, hail, thunder... more...

Simulations of the Effects of Climate Changeby Ashok Malik
Rajat Publications 2008; US$ 50.00
This last book in the series on climate change moves away slightly from the completely scientific tone adopted in the first three books, by presenting for the cases of destruction, fragmentation and degradation of the environment entailed by climate change. The idea behind this is to give a much more realistic approaches to the situation and wake up... more...

Entwicklungsl�nder im Klimawandel: Anpassungsstrategien in der internationalen Klimapolitikby Sarah Hackfort
Diplomica Verlag 2010; US$ 6.47
Aktuelle politische Antwortstrategien auf Klimawandel ber�cksichtigen einerseits Klimaschutzma�nahmen (Engl. mitigation), andererseits auch die Anpassung (Engl. adaptation) an den schon verursachten Wandel des Klimas und dessen Folgen. Gegenstand dieser Untersuchung sind die nationalen Anpassungsstrategien an Klimawandel von Bangladesh und Malawi.... more...
