| Abstract
|
:
|
With contributions by leading experts, including an unpublished paper by Ed Lorenz, this book covers many topics in weather and climate predictability. It will interest those in the fields of environmental science and weather and climate forecasting, from graduate students to researchers, by examining theoretical and practical aspects of predictability.
