About this book
Meteorology; Or, Weather Explained is a comprehensive and accessible guide to the science of weather, authored by J. G. M'Pherson and first published in the late 19th century. This book delves into the fundamental principles of meteorology, offering readers a clear and systematic explanation of atmospheric phenomena. Covering a wide range of topics, it explores the composition and structure of the atmosphere, the causes and effects of winds, clouds, and precipitation, and the mechanisms behind storms, cyclones, and other weather events. The author skillfully combines scientific theory with practical observation, making complex concepts understandable for both students and general readers interested in the natural world. Throughout the book, M'Pherson emphasizes the importance of weather forecasting and the impact of meteorological knowledge on agriculture, navigation, and daily life. Richly illustrated with diagrams and examples, Meteorology; Or, Weather Explained remains a valuable historical resource for anyone seeking to understand the forces that shape our weather and climate.
