Thanks Dave for your answers to my questions.

I had a few additional questions. I thought about getting the
Meteorology for Scientist and Engineers book.

1. Would it be good for someone in the hobby end of meteorology. I
would like to know more than the Meteorology book presents, but not as
a profession.

Only if you know your calculus well.


2. I took calculus in high school but did not cover differential
equations. Would I be able to understand mostly what is in the book.

Probably, assuming you know your calculus well.


3. What is the general recommendation of the book? Would most people
give it a high rating?

Most of the reviews I've seen are positive. You might want to look up some
of the reviews on amazon.com.
E-mail me at dmoran21@xxxxxxx if you have more questions.


Thanks in advance for answering my questions

David

I had a few questions

1. What additional information is in the Meteorology for Scientists and
Engineers books that is not in the Meteorology Today book?

It just gives a more technical view of the topics in Meteorology Today.


2. What level of calculus and differential equations is need for the
math found in the Meteorology and Scientists and Engineers book?

If I remember right, it's mostly calculus, with some differential
equations.

3.Is there any website other than the book (Meteorolgy for Scientists
and Engineers) website that has information about the contents of the
book?

Not that I know of.

4. Are there any websites that have similar info (formulas) as there is
in the Meteorology for Scientists and Engineers book?

Not that I know of.

5. What other books are similar to Meteorology for Scientists and
Engineers book?

None that I know of.

Any help would be appreciated

Dave
