The Encyclopedia of Climatology: Encyclopedia of Earth Sciences Series

Editat de J.E. Oliver, Rhodes W. Fairbridge
en Limba Engleză Electronic book text – 20 sep 2006
Today's greater public awareness of how climate affects our quality of life and environment has created an increasing demand for climatological information. Now this information is available in one convenient, accessible source,The Encyclopedia of Climatology. This comprehensive volume covers all the main subfields of climatology, supplies data on climates in major continental areas and explains what is known about the causes of climatic processes and changes. Contents include articles on bioclimatology, El Niño, climatic models, world regional climates, civilization and climate, climatic variations and the greenhouse effect.
