4.0 out of 5 stars Good Discussion of Why We Use Model Simulations for Weather and Climate, August 9, 2007

This review is from: From Observations to Simulations: A Conceptual Introduction to Weather And Climate Modeling (Hardcover)
This book explains why we cannot rely on observations and experiments to understand and predict weather and climate. It discusses how models and ensembles are necessary in atmospheric science. The book is written for non-scientists and is well done. As an atmospheric science student, I found this analysis very useful in an environment where model use is presumed rather than justified. It is translated from Italian so there are some translation problems. It is also wordy and repetitious in some sections. Overall, it is a useful summary of numerical weather and climate modeling.
