Radar Meteorology

Translation of the French work published by Eyrolles of Paris, date not stated. Radar has established itself as the perfect instrument for remote sensing of the atmosphere, and despite remarkable applications thus far, the best may be yet to come. This compact and accessible introduction to meteorologic measurement and observation of atmospheric processes by radar is meant for the diverse readers (e.g. pilots, engineers, ornithologists) for whom radar is a valuable tool. Assumes basic knowledge of physics and math (two years college level), and elementary concepts of meteorology. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
