Produktbeschreibung
"This book aims to synthesise the latest knowledge of West African meteorology with operational tools and methods for weather forecasting in the region. We hope that it will be valuable for the training of weather forecasters in West Africa, for weather forecasters around the world having an interest in tropical predictions, and for students of Meteorology. It is our intention that the material should appeal to students who have an interest both in tropical dynamics and operational forecasting, and the book is targeted at both the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. A basic meteorological knowledge is assumed. The book is particularly demanded by National Meteorological Services, whose general forecasting services are still in their early stages. For many years, focus has been on forecasting for aviation, but with climate change and its associated hazards and impacts, there is increasing demand for specific meteorological forecasts at a wider range of time and space scales"--Provided by publisher.
