Meteorology is the science which studies the atmosphere and atmospheric phenomena, and how these influence the weather. It specializes in the study of atmospheric events occurring in the troposphere and lower stratosphere. A major area of meteorology is atmospheric research or operational weather forecasting. Meteorology also explores the relationship between the atmosphere and the Earth's oceans, climates and biological life. Such research guides the assessment of the current state of the atmosphere and allows a future prediction of the climate to be developed. A number of technologies aid in examining, describing, modeling and predicting weather systems with a high degree of accuracy and efficiency. Radar and satellites are two such technologies that are of utmost importance to meteorological studies. This book discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches of meteorology. It traces the progress of this field and highlights some of its key concepts and applications. It is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.
