| Summary |
This comprehensive text and reference work on numerical weather prediction covers for the first time, not only methods for numerical modeling, but also the important related areas of data assimilation and predictability. It will therefore be of great interest to professors and students of meteorology, atmospheric science, oceanography and hydrology |
