An analysis of the results of three North American field experiments designed to measure the systematic component of the atmospheric refraction error in leveling.
Battling the Elements
Throughout history, from Kublai Khan's attempted invasions of Japan to Rommel's desert warfare, military operations have succeeded or failed on the ability of commanders to incorporate environmental conditions into their tactics. In Battling the Elements, geographer Harold A. Winters and former U.S. Army officers Gerald E. Galloway Jr., William J. Reynolds, and David W. Rhyne, examine the connections between major battles in world history and their geographic components, revealing what role factors such as weather, climate, terrain, soil, and vegetation have played in combat. Each chapter offers a detailed and engaging explanation of a specific environmental factor and then looks at several battles that highlight its effects on military operations. As this cogent analysis of geography and war makes clear, those who know more about the shape, nature, and variability of battleground conditions will always have a better understanding of the nature of combat and at least one significant advantage over a less knowledgeable enemy.
Precipitation Scavenging And Atmosphere-Surface Exchange
This three-volume set contains selected papers arising from a conference held in 1991 on precipitation and air pollution. The first volume addresses the precipitation scavenging process; the second deals with atmosphere-surface exchange processes; and the third covers air pollution and deposition.
