Essentials of Meteorology An Invitation to the Atmosphere 6th edition



Essentials of Meteorology: An Invitation to the Atmosphere by C. Donald Ahrens (Author). This up to date and enhanced sixth version of ESSENTIALS OF METEOROLOGY is written by the broadly read and authoritative writer in introductory meteorology–Donald Ahrens. Ahrens’s potential to elucidate comparatively sophisticated ideas in a pupil-friendly, manageable fashion will let you easily visualize the ideas of meteorology. ESSENTIALS OF METEOROLOGY is totally updated with over 250 new pictures and figures and the latest research and coverage.

I used this e book in my Intro to Meteorology class at my junior school with the identical professor I had for oceanography. Compared to one other book in a similar discipline it is straightforward to see how nicely put together Ahrens’ ebook is. The data builds nicely on top of itself, and the e-book has very related pictures and graphs in applicable places to actually praise the textual content, not all books are this properly organized. Each chapter additionally begins off with an eye fixed popping anecdote which includes an incident associated with the chapter, similar to hurricanes or excessive microbursts. One other attention-grabbing point is that most of the pictures in the guide have been photographed by Ahrens himself, reinforcing his credibility as a meteorologist.


My meteorology class used this textbook. I found it well-written and easy to learn, and the keywords and summaries had been very useful. I didn’t have to learn the entire thing as a result of my paid consideration in school, however any time I wished to look up data, this e book was there. In fact, I had the Kindle version, and with the ability to search the guide (and have my Mac’s textual content-to-speech reads it to me) helped.

I’m a college scholar on the Univeristy of Colorado at Boulder. I used to be required to learn Ahrens e-book and I found it very helpful and informative. On occasions it was slightly dull and simple, but it covered the environment and climate related matters extraordinarily well. I like to recommend this text to anybody thinking about the weather. The pictures and graphs were great too!
