Synopsis International Bibliography of Meteorology by : James Rodger Fleming

This bibliography was started in 1872 by Prof. Cleveland Abbe, chief scientist in the weather service when it was still part of the U.S. Army Signal Corps. By 1889 the collection had grown to over 60,000 books, dissertations, articles, and pamphlets -- essentially everything printed about meteorology and related topics up to 1889. This bibliography contains over 16,000 of the most important entries in the original collection. It is a new edition that combines 4 volumes into one -- Temperature, Moisture, Winds, and Storms -- and integrates the errata and several supplements into the original text. Over 2/3 of the entries are not in English.
