Weather Forecaster to Research Scientist

My Career in Meteorology

de Robert M. Atlas ...

This memoir follows the sixty-year meteorology career of Robert M. Atlas.As a young child, Robert M. Atlas would often look up at the sky, observe the clouds, and ask his parents questions about the weather. That early interest sparked a career in meteorology that took place during a period of rapid development in the field. Weather Forecaster to Research Scientist follows his decades-long career ...

The UFO Enigma

A New Review of the Physical Evidence

de Peter A. Sturrock ...

"A comprehensive investigation of encounters with unidentified flying objects, all the more riveting because it is both skeptical and scrupulously objective." — Kirkus ReviewsFor over fifty years, the modern UFO controversy has raged between believers and debunkers, with little input from the scientific community. Now, in a major report commissioned by Laurance S. Rockefeller, an international ... Leer más

Hurricane Sandy, Our Changing Climate, and Extreme Weather of the Past and Future

de Adam Sobel ...

Was Sandy a freak of nature, or the new normal?On October 29, 2012, Hurricane Sandy reached the shores of the northeastern United States to become one of the most destructive storms in history. But was Sandy a freak event, or should we have been better prepared for it? Was it a harbinger of things to come as the climate warms?

NIPCC vs. IPCC

Addressing the Disparity between Climate Models and Observations: Testing the Hypothesis of Anthropogenic Global Warming

de S. Fred Singer ...

Global warming: Is it natural or is it manmade? This issue is of crucial importance for both climate science and climate policy. We update the ongoing controversy. This booklet also discusses chaotic uncertainties of climate models and how to overcome them, presents new thinking on Climategate and the Hockeystick graph - and shows what we can say about the absence of post-1979 warming in the ...

Wind Tunnel Testing of High-Rise Buildings

de Peter Irwin, Roy Denoon, David Scott ...

Since the 1960s, wind tunnel testing has become a commonly used tool in the design of tall buildings. It was pioneered, in large part, during the design of the World Trade Center Towers in New York. Since those early days of wind engineering, wind tunnel testing techniques have developed in sophistication, but these techniques are not widely understood by the designers using the results.

Mesoscale-Convective Processes in the Atmosphere

de Robert J. Trapp ...

This new textbook seeks to promote a deep yet accessible understanding of mesoscale-convective processes in the atmosphere. Mesoscale-convective processes are commonly manifested in the form of thunderstorms, which are fast evolving, inherently hazardous, and can assume a broad range of sizes and severity. Modern explanations of the convective-storm dynamics, and of the related development of ... Leer más

We Can Go There: How Did We Miss This?

de Matthew H Burch ...

Have you ever wondered why NASA and other space agencies have been telling us that moving payloads outside Earth orbit is so hard? The short answer is the rocket equation. The long answer is that space propulsion was focused on two major methods, carrying the fuel with the payload, or collecting propulsive energy from a remote source. Every serious space project since we've gone to space has done ... Leer más
