Holton, James R. An Introduction to Dynamic Meteorology
Fourth edition. Elsevier Academic Press, 2004. This revised text
presents a cogent explanation of the fundamentals of meteorology,
and explains storm dynamics for weather-oriented meteorologists. It
discusses climate dynamics and the implications posed for global
change. Much of the material is based on a two-term course for
seniors majoring in atmospheric sciences.

Wiley-VCH, Verlag GmbH, Weinheim, 2006, 479 pp. - ISBN: 3-527-40503-8 Like so many textbooks, this one has its origins in the classroom, the fruit of more than 30 years of combined experience teaching courses on atmospheric radiation to graduate and undergraduate students of meteorology. This experience has forced us to recognize that most of our students do not adequately understand the fundamentals of electromagnetic radiation and its interacti...
Csanady G.T. Air-Sea Interaction: Laws and Mechanisms
Cambridge University Press, 2004.- 248 p. Air-Sea Interaction: Laws and Mechanisms provides a comprehensive account of how the atmosphere and the ocean interact to control the global climate, what physical laws govern this interaction, and what are its prominent mechanisms. In recent years, air-sea interaction has emerged as a subject in its own right, encompassing small- and large-scale processes in both air and sea. A novel feature of the book...

McGraw-Hill Professional, 2005. - 323 pages. From showers to hurricanes, from heat waves to global warming, weather and climate are important not only to budding meteorologists but also to those in the fields of aviation, earth science, and the environment. In Meteorology Demystified, best-selling author Stan Gibilisco, writing with his usual entertaining and informative style and flair, provides a complete foundation of essential physical and s...
James I.N. Introduction to Circulating Atmospheres
Cambridge University Press, 1995, 422 Pages This book gives an account of the modern view of the global circulation of the atmosphere. It accounts for the observed nature of the circulation and theories and simple models of the mechanisms that drive it. Early chapters concentrate on the classical view of the global circulation, on the processes that generate atmospheric motions, and on the dynamical constraints that modify them. Later chapters...
