Clouds are not only little balls of funny shapes and forms. In an era of climate change and less and less predictable weather phenomena, understanding how clouds form and what they mean in a broader meteorological context proves to be an extremely useful skill.
This book provides a detailed and transparent explanation of the various types of clouds, explains their origin and importance for ecosystems, outlines the history of meteorological observations, but above all indicates that nature is a system of interconnected vessels in which clouds and rainfall plays a key role.
In this inconspicuous book you will find everything you need to understand the formation and role of clouds on Earth, you will learn to easily distinguish between their types, and you will find out why even modest clouds are crucial to maintaining the harmony of the whole ecosystem.
If you still can't distinguish cirrus from stratus, nimbus from cumulonimbus, wondering why some clouds seem to glow in the evening, or you never know which cloud it will rain from - this book will answer all of them these questions and more that you have never had a clue about. In a clear, simple, but scientific way, the author explains how clouds are formed and decay, what their different types mean, and what is the relationship between clouds and all weather phenomena. The book is not only for amateurs of observing clouds or the physics of the atmosphere, but also for everyone interested in the incredible complexity of the ecosystem of which we are only a small part. • author: Storm Dunlop (British)
