Sinossi
Excerpt from A Complete Course of Meteorology
I have been no less powerfully assisted by my friend M. Léon lalanne, Civil Engineer. He has given a graphic representation of forty -two numerical tables out of a hundred and thirteen, according to the common system of two rectangular co-ordinates, and according to another system of three co-ordi nates, the use of which he was the first to generalise, and the principles of which are explained in the Appendix. These graphic representations are an immense service rendered to meteorology; for they possess the threefold advantage, - of setting before the eye numerical results, - of representing the laws of which they are the expression, - and of shewing, by the irregularity of certain curves, which are they that do not represent natural laws, and that demand a greater number of observations.

Valutazione del venditore 4 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1840, covers a wide range of meteorological phenomena. It begins by explaining the basics of temperature measurement, then discusses how temperature varies with height in the atmosphere. The author also provides a detailed account of the distribution of temperature on the Earth's surface, including the effects of latitude, altitude, and local conditions. The author's focus on the role of heat in atmospheric phenomena is groundbreaking for the time period. Building on prior research, he explains how heat is propagated and distributed through the atmosphere. This allows him to draw connections between different weather events and climate patterns. The author's insights into the relationship between heat, wind, and moisture in the atmosphere have had a profound impact on the study of meteorology. His work helped to establish meteorology as a scientific discipline, and his findings continue to be used by meteorologists today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
