The Assessment of Human bioclimate : a limited review of physical parameters
Maintenance of stability in the human body in relation to the atmospheric environment by physiological or technological adjustments is essential for human survival in many parts of the Earth. The capability to adapt by acclimatization is limited. Various indices have been developed to assess the effects of heat and cold on human beings. Some are quite complex and include ail elements of the energy balance. They require measurements not generally ma de by meteorological services. But at the cold end the simple factors of wind chill (a combination of temperature and wind speed) or cooling power ...

Radiation processes in the atmosphere : Second IMO Lecture
This monograph on atmospheric radiation, by one of the world's foremost specialists, gives an up-to-date review of a subject of increasing importance to meteorology. Particular attention is paid to the interaction between dynamic and radiative processes, a topic of major relevance to the numerical modelling of atmospheric circulation, especially for the purpose of long-range weather forecasting. Various chapters deal with the solar constant, radiation characteristics of the underlying surface, radiation climatology of the Earth, atmospheric aerosols and their influence on radiation transfer, t ...
Étude des conditions climatiques de l'avance du Sahara tunisien = Investigations on the climatic conditions of the advancement of the Tunisian Sahara
Depuis quelque temps, on prend conscience du fait que l'intensification des activités agricoles dans la zone semi-aride de la Tunisie limitrophe du désert saharien a modifié les conditions naturelles, et l'on soupçonne certaines de ces modifications d'avoir un caractère permanent. Dans le présent rapport, le professeur Flohn rend compte de l'étude qu'il a faite en 1970 en vue d'analyser les facteurs significatifs du bilan hydrique de cette région.
It has been recognized for some tinte that increasing agricultural activities in the semi-arid boundary zone of the Sahara Déser ...
