This book provides a background to the fundamental principles of parameterization physics for accurate numerical predictions of cloud and precipitation.
The most dangerous and least understood atmospheric phenomenon, tornadoes are the subject of a upcoming Steven Spielberg thriller entitled Twister. Complete with spectacular close-up photos, this book explores the genesis of tornadoes and profiles the scientists who try to monitor them.
Presents seventeen articles that were originally published in "Scientific American" dating from 1998 to 2005.

This book provides an overview of several components of mesoscale modeling: boundary conditions, subgrid-scale parameterization, moisture processes, and radiation. Also included are mesoscale model comparisons using data from the U.S. Army's Project WIND (Winds in Non-uniform Domains).
Storm and Cloud Dynamics focuses on the dynamics of clouds and of precipitating mesoscale meteorological systems. Clouds and precipitating mesoscale systems represent some of the most important and scientifically exciting weather systems in the world. These are the systems that produce torrential rains, severe winds including downburst and tornadoes, hail, thunder and lightning, and major snow storms. Forecasting such storms represents a major challenge since they are too small to be adequately resolved by conventional observing networks and numerical prediction models. - Provides a complete treatment of clouds integrating the analysis of air motions with cloud structure, microphysics, and p...
Presents a detailed encyclopedia of named hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones, descriptions of storm activity, definitions of meteorological terms, and more.
