Utah has long claimed to have the greatest snow on Earth - the state itself has even trademarked the phrase. In Secrets of the Greatest Snow on Earth, Jim Steenburgh investigates Wasatch weather, exposing the myths, explaining the reality, and revealing how and why Utah’s powder lives up to its reputation. Steenburgh also examines ski and snowboard regions beyond Utah, making this book a meteorological guide to mountain weather and snow climates around the world.

Man’s struggle against the sea is a theme that has created some of the world’s most exciting stories. Now, in the tradition of Moby Dick comes a New York Times best seller destined to become a modern classic. Written by journalist Sebastian Junger, The Perfect Storm combines an intimate portrait of a small fishing crew with fascinating scientific data about boats and weather systems.

The fourth book in our Ask the Experts series, The Environment tackles questions about the world around us. In this book, our experts field queries on the weather, natural disasters, natural resources, climate change, and unusual phenomena.

If climate catastrophes like Hurricane Sandy seem to be on the rise, it’s for a reason. The likelihood of these extreme weather events are increasingly being tied to man-made global warming, mostly through overproduction of carbon dioxide. It’s no longer an abstract idea; it’s being felt locally, on every level. Climate Change and Extreme Weather gives you the tools to better understand what’s behind climate change, what might be in store during the coming decades, and how we can begin to reverse the detrimental effects mankind has had on the atmosphere.

An exploration of humanity’s relationship with ice since the dawn of civilization, Of Ice and Men reminds us that only by understanding this unique substance can we save the ice on our planet—and perhaps ourselves.

This book examines climate change's grim reality, emphasizing urgent action against future droughts, famine, and displacement.

For listeners fascinated by conspiracy theories, mysteries, and the unseen forces shaping our world, this book invites you to step into a reality where weather isn’t just a force of nature, but a tool of control.

Nubi sulla garisenda: una dettagliata analisi delle caratteristiche climatiche della città felsinea.

Si los cambios de tiempo te alteran el ánimo, el invierno te entristece y las rodillas te chivan que va a llover, es muy probable que seas meteorosensibleDamos por hecho que las borrascas nos deprimen, que existe la astenia primaveral, que los vientos nos enloquecen y que la luna afecta al ciclo menstrual de las mujeres. Pero, ¿qué hay de cierto en ello? Y más importante aún, que otros aspectos ambientales o cambios meteorológicos pueden afectar a nuestra salud física y mental.

From the crystalline perfection of the snowflake to the transfer of energy from the Sun, science lies at the heart of the weather and our understanding of it. In recent years, weather science has moved to the leading edge with advanced modelling, versatile use of satellite data and a better understanding of mathematical chaos. This is a true example of hot science at work.

Why Elephants Cry is a fascinating frolic through the literature and evidence surrounding the use of unusual behavior of animals to measure and predict the environment. The role of animals, from the smallest ant to the biggest elephant, as predictors of environmental changes is framed around the climate crisis, which highlights the increasingly important part that animals will have to play in the future. Renowned biologist Professor John T. Hancock collects anecdotal stories and myths along with scientific evidence, demonstrating that observation of animals can be of tangible use.

Wie wir mit dem Wissen über die Alpen unser Wetter und den Klimawandel besser verstehen. Meteorologe Sven Plöger und Wissenschaftsjournalist Rolf Schlenker erklären, wie die Alpen als Taktgeber für unterschiedlichste Wetterphänomene auch im Flachland wirken. Wie Hitzerekorde, Trockenperioden, Saharastaub und Starkregen, Föhnstürme und Orkanböen entstehen. Mit welchen Strategien Alpentiere überleben; wie das evolutive Gedächtnis von Alpenpflanzen funktioniert. Und welche Ideen es vor Ort gibt, mit denen wir dem Klimawandel entgegentreten können.

The New England landscape has long been battered by some of the most intense weather in the United States. The region breeds one of the highest concentrations of meteorologists in the country for a reason. One can experience just about anything except a dust storm. Knowing the past is a critical part of understanding and forecasting the weather. Meteorologist Eric Fisher takes an in-depth look at some of the most intense weather events in New England's history.

Il nostro pianeta è in pericolo, ben presto gli effetti del riscaldamento globale saranno irreversibili. Come siamo arrivati a questo punto? Di chi è la colpa? Cosa possiamo fare per invertire la rotta? Unendo approfondite competenze scientifiche a un inimitabile talento di narratore, che lo ha reso celebre in tutto il mondo, Frank Schätzing risponde a queste domande partendo dall'analisi del concetto di clima e di catastrofe ambientale, perché la regola numero uno di ogni guerra è "conosci il tuo nemico".

Hitzejahre, klirrende Kälte, Sturmfluten: Eindrucksvoll zeigt Ronald D. Gerste, wie langfristige Klimaveränderungen und einzelne Wetterereignisse sich auf die Gesellschaften und die Kulturen der Menschheit auswirkten und sogar den Verlauf der Geschichte beeinflussten.

Look up! When you look to the sky, do you wonder why the sun is so bright or why the clouds are white or why the sky is blue? Then Weather for Dummies is your resource to fuel your curiosity about the weather. It takes you on an exciting journey through the Earth's atmosphere and the ways it behaves. You'll get an overview of rain, sun, clouds, storms, and other phenomena.

The weather of the Great Plains is extreme and highly variable, from floods to droughts, blizzards to tornadoes. In Great Plains Weather Kenneth F. Dewey explains what makes this region’s climate unique by presenting a historical climatology of extreme weather events. Beginning with tornadoes - perhaps the most formidable plains weather phenomena - he describes the climatology of these storms and discusses memorable tornadoes of the plains.

Every applicable government agency and almost all mainstream media outlets claim that chemtrails are merely a "conspiracy theory". They say that the lines in the sky are harmless condensation trails and that jet aircrafts have always produced emissions that can linger in the sky for hours as they spread out and form a hazy cloud-cover. They say that anybody who asserts that aircraft are routinely spraying us with toxic materials is crazy. If this is so, then why are we consistently seeing anomalously high levels of toxins in rainwater samples as well as in ambient air samples?

From prehistory to the present-day conservation movement, Stephen Pyne explores the efforts of successive American cultures to master wildfire and to use it to shape the landscape. A timely environmental classic. Pyne was named by Science magazine as "the world's leading authority on the history of fire." The narrator of Fire in America, Jack de Golia, served as a firefighter with the National Park Service and then as a fire information officer for the NPS, Bureau of Land Management and US Forest Service.

Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) ist bis heute einer der bedeutendsten Philosophen. Neben seinen großen Kritiken verfasste Kant auch Schriften zu Religion, Geschichte und Naturwissenschaften. Bis heute ist die sogenannte Kant-Laplace-Theorie die anerkannte Erklärung der Entstehung unseres Planetensystems. In seiner kleinen, wenig bekannten Schrift "Etwas über den Einfluß des Mondes auf die Witterung" untersucht Kant Lichtenbergs Zitat "Der Mond sollte zwar nicht auf die Witterung Einfluß haben; er hat aber doch Einfluß.
