Year: 2001 Language: english Author: Arthur Upgren & Jurgen Stock ISBN: 0-7382-0521-4 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 240 Description: We are learning that climatic regimes change with time as well as location—satellites and computers are used to measure temporal change with ever-improving precision. As the human species moves toward making major alterations in climate, so has it become aware of these changes and the economic and other dislocations they are likely to generate. These two trends may or may not be coincidental. But an awareness of them is becoming an essential part of a liberal education and a career in business or government. The authors intend to increase that awareness in an amicable way; the first seven chapters investigate the properties of weather, and the remaining chapters take a look at climates of the past, present, and as far as possible, the future as well.
