A study of satellites from Echo and Early Bird through ERTS, Navsats, Weather Sats to Landsat and Satellite Business Systems. Shows the effort put into the weather study of the earth and ends with a review...
A resource disc containing about 600 cloud motion image sequences from geo-stationary and polar-orbiting weather satellites recorded bytween 1967 and 1991 and the film CLOUD MOTION AND SCALES by Christian...
Demonstratess how weather is influenced by temperature, air movement and precipitation. Looks at each of these factors and illustrates how they can be measured, how predictions can be made, and what the...
Explains how the weather works, to help interpret official forecasts more accurately and read between the lines to turn a large area forecast into a local one. Covers energy transfer, gas law, adiabatic...
Explains formation and propagation of the wind-gust lines of thunderstorms (arc-clouds) using animation and time-lapse shots from geostationary weather satellites. Interpretation of characteristic...
Computer-calculated wind vector fields show changes of the vertical motions over southern Florida within the sea breeze circulation. The colouring indicates the formation of clouds and simplifies...
Methods of observing the weather. Difficulties of obtaining an adequate data coverage of the globe by means of conventional surface and upper-air observations are pointed out. Possibilities of using balloons...
Shows the geographic position of southern Florida and the layer composition of the simulation model computer calculated wind vector fields for the 50m layer, followed by the influence of the large scale...
Canadian scientist Dr Graeme Mather, who work with cloud seeding in South Africa to prove that clouds could be made to rain by means of human intervention, believed that after 30 years he learned how to end...
A resource to encourage students to judge whether or not climate change will impact people differently around the world. The impacts of climate change can be hard to see, but footage from the Arctic,...
