Meteorology: A Textbook on the Weather, the Causes of Its Changes and Weather Forecasting is a comprehensive guide to the study of weather patterns and forecasting. Written by Willis Isbister Milham in 1918, this book explores the science of meteorology, including the various factors that influence weather patterns, such as atmospheric pressure, wind, temperature, and humidity. It also delves into the causes of weather changes, such as storms, hurricanes, and tornadoes, and provides detailed explanations of the tools and techniques used in weather forecasting. Milham's book is organized into four main sections, covering the basic principles of meteorology, the study of atmospheric phenomena, weather forecasting, and the practical applications of meteorology. The first section provides an overview of the atmosphere and its composition, as well as the basic laws of thermodynamics and fluid dynamics that govern weather patterns. The second section explores the various types of atmospheric phenomena, including clouds, precipitation, and lightning, and the factors that influence their formation and behavior. The third section of the book focuses on weather forecasting, providing a detailed description of the tools and techniques used to predict weather patterns, including weather balloons, satellites, and computer models. Milham also provides a historical overview of weather forecasting, tracing its evolution from ancient times to the present day. The final section of the book explores the practical applications of meteorology, including its use in agriculture, aviation, and military operations. Overall, Meteorology: A Textbook on the Weather, the Causes of Its Changes and Weather Forecasting is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of weather patterns and forecasting. Milham's clear and concise writing style, combined with his in-depth knowledge of the subject matter, make this book a valuable reference for students, researchers, and weather enthusiasts alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
