Mountain weather and climate
Roger Graham Barry · 1981
על הספר
"Following an introductory survey of the historical aspects of mountain meteorology, three chapters deal with the latitudinal, altitudinal, and topographic controls of meteorological elements in mountains, circulation systems related to orography, and the climatic characteristics of mountains. The author supplies regional case studies of selected mountain climates and includes new material on mountains in central Asia, Tibet, Greenland, Antarctica, the Andes, New Zealand, the Alps, and equatorial East Africa. There is a chapter examining human bioclimatology, weather hazards, and air pollution, and a concluding chapter on the evidence for and the significance of changes in mountain climates. This book is ideal for graduates and researchers in meteorology, climatology, ecology, forestry, glaciology, and hydrology."--Jacket.
