Product Description
This is an introductory text on numerical weather prediction (numerically modelling the general circulation of the atmosphere), utilizing the spectral transform method. The book covers finite difference methods and time-differencing schemes; the theoretical development of the spectral transform method (using spherical surfaces rather than grids for determining variation in the elements of weather); physical processes; current issues in dynamical and physical initiation; and data analysis. Several practical examples of the spectral transform method are included.

Concise and thorough
This is as good an introduction to Spectral Modelling in Meteorology as you are likely to find. Krishnamurti and Bedi do not beat about the bush but give you the facts, the formulae, the stencils. It might help you to understand it if you have an odd Cray around, to do some exercises on. Otherwise you can mention this title at your next meteorology job interview.
