Date: Mon, Apr 18, 2016 Subject: Re: Stull's new meteorology text book I have already visited his site a few weeks back and have made the decision to adopt this text for my intro to met class. Having looked through it, I can say that the book is very well-rounded, richly and professionally illustrated, with some great supplementary (boxed) material for deeper dives. Roland is a wonderful writer, with exceptionally clear expositions. Props to Roland for making available this resource, in a time when text prices are escalating, and so many of them do not provide any quantitative degree of rigor. It's a text AND an exercise manual rolled up into one! -- Jeffrey B. Halverson, Ph.D. Professor of Meteorology, Dept. Geography and Environmental Systems Graduate Program Director University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) |
