Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed analysis of a particular weather event, the surface gap of January 8, 1939, through the lens of isentropic analysis, a relatively new meteorological technique that has proven to be useful for both understanding and predicting weather patterns. The author begins by reviewing the synoptic situation leading up to the gap and then uses isentropic charts to track the movement of air masses and identify areas of instability. The author argues that this approach offers an improved understanding of the processes that led to the gap and could help meteorologists to better predict similar events in the future. Overall, the book provides a valuable contribution to the field of meteorology and is likely to be of particular interest to researchers and students specializing in synoptic meteorology, weather forecasting, and atmospheric dynamics. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
