THE BASICS OF CLIMATE PREDICTION

Begbroke Science Park at Oxford University has made available to The Society a number of CD's entitled THE BASICS OF CLIMATE PREDICTION. This gives an introduction to the whole topic of climate and goes on to discuss what affects the climate and why it is so complicated. It then discusses what we can predict at the moment and looks at some features of current predictions, in terms of usefulness and limitations. This is a very well constructed CD and copies can be obtained free of charge from the SEE secretariat (office@environmental.org.uk) on a first come first served basis.
