About This Book
A practical manual offering step-by-step observational and laboratory exercises for elementary meteorology aimed at secondary and grammar school instruction. It begins with non-instrumental observations of temperature, wind, sky, and precipitation, proceeds through elementary and advanced instrumental methods, and teaches construction and interpretation of daily weather maps. Chapters analyze correlations among wind, pressure, cyclones, anticyclones, temperature, and weather patterns, and conclude with forecasting techniques, problem sets, meteorological tables, and teacher notes including laboratory equipment recommendations.
