Oklahoma Climatological Survey: Heat Transfer

Curated by ACT

A discussion from the Oklahoma Climatological Survey of the thermal factors effecting the movement of air masses in the atmosphere. Numerous topics such as methods of heat transfer, latent heat, phase changes (including sublimation and vaporization), and specific heat. The application of each principle to meteorology is clearly made. Excellent graphics!
