The branch of atmospheric sciences that makes use of atmospheric chemistry and physics is known as meteorology. It focuses on weather forecasting. Meteorological studies take place at various scales such as microscale, mesoscale, synoptic scale and global scale. Important meteorological principles include boundary layer meteorology and dynamic meteorology. Boundary layer meteorology studies the processes in the layer of air that is directly above the Earth's surface. Dynamic meteorology is concerned with the fluid dynamics of the atmosphere. Some of the areas where meteorology is applied are aviation, agriculture and military. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to meteorology. Such selected concepts that redefine this field have been presented in it. The coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
