Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual of Aerography for the United States Navy, 1918
In order to meet the requirements of the new meteorology now generally called aerography, the adoption of a standard and finally an international standard set of recognized units is desirable if not indeed essential. In selecting this new notation, the units should be such that compilation of data will be simplified, that fewer mistakes will occur, and above all that definite and precise conceptions of the phenomena of the atmosphere shall be had, particularly of the various transformations of energy which are manifested in general and local disturbances.
