Review of urban climatology 1973-1976
This publication reviews developments in the fields of urban climatology and meteorology in the period 1973-1976 inclusive. It therefore forms an addendum to WMO Technical Note No. 134 "Review of Urban Climatology 1968-1973" produced earlier by the author. The organization of the report follows that of the earlier one and the combined bibliographies along with that produced by Chandler (WMO Publication No. 276, 1970) provide a reasonably comprehensive coverage of literature in urban climatology.Une évaluation des ressources du climat et de l'eau pour le développement de l'agriculture dans la zone Soudano-Sahélienne de l'Afrique de l'ouest : résumé du rapport spécial n°9 de l'OMM sur l'environnement établi pour le PNUE

Application of building climatology to the problems of housing and building for human settlements
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) - WMO, 1976 (WMO-No. 441)This report attempts to discuss the systematics of building climatology in relation to building design. Chapter 1 attempts to outline the general scope of building climatology. Chapter 2 provides a detailed analysis of the meteorologist's contribution to the improvement of the safety of buildings exposed to weather extremes of one kind or another. Chapter 3 describes systematic processes for harnessing meteorological data into the actual building design and construction process. It assumes, as a fundamental requirement, that it is important to work out how best to achieve an appropriate balanc ...
Urban climatology and its relevance to urban design
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) - WMO, 1976 (WMO-No. 438)As a guide to planners, Chapter 1 of this Technical Note considers the various mass, moisture, heat and momentum exchanges within the urban boundary layer; Chapter 2 describes the conséquences of thèse as they affect the distribution patterns of each of the meteorological éléments; and Chapter 3 considers the implications of urban climates to successful urban design, together with the logistics of the climatic input into the planning process.
Economic benefits of climatological services
The former WMO Commission for Climatology, now the WMO Commission for Special Applications of Meteorology and Climatology, appointed, at its fifth session (Geneva, 1969), Dr. R. Berggren (Sweden) as Rapporteur on Economic Benefits of Climatological Services. He was requested, inter alia, to collect and summarize information on methods and results of évaluations of économie benefits from the application of climatological information to various human activities. In his capacity as Rapporteur of the Commission for Climatology, Dr. Berggren was also a member of the Executive Committee Panel on Met ...
Instrument and observing problems in cold climates
Contains three reports: Methods used to minimize, prevent and remove ice accretion on instruments; Protecting sensors and masts of automatic stations against icing; Visibility in cold climates - a summary of environmental problems and instrumentation.
Review of urban Climatology 1968-1973
This publication reviews developments in the field of urban climatology since the Symposium on Urban Climates and Building Climatology held at Brussels in 1968 under the joint sponsorship of the World Health Organization and WMO. During this relatively short period of time the importance of understanding the atmospheric environment of human settlements has become increasingly apparent and the amount of research has greatly expanded. The review is in two parts. The first part deals mainly with observational studies. This begins with a look at work aimed at elucidating the nature of the fundamen ...
