Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a groundbreaking analysis of the causes of meteorological phenomena, particularly the connection between water, air, and electricity in the atmosphere. Building on the foundational work of M. Le Roy de Montpellier, the author takes a comprehensive look at the role of water in the atmosphere, from its absorption by air to its precipitation and impact on atmospheric conditions. The book examines the relationship between air pressure and precipitation, explaining how changes in pressure can lead to the formation of clouds and rain. It also explores the phenomena of dew, fog, and hail, demonstrating how these are all manifestations of the same underlying principles. Through its detailed observations and experiments, this book deepens our understanding of the complex interactions between water and air and provides valuable insights into the workings of the atmosphere.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the analysis of concentric colored rings formed between two glass surfaces placed together. The author examines the action of multiple surfaces and concludes that only two are essential to the formation of the rings, and that these surfaces must have a certain regularity of construction and be capable of forming a central contact. The author also explores the role of refraction and transmission, arguing that the rings are formed by the modifications resulting from the action of the two essential surfaces. The book contributes to our understanding of the nature and formation of concentric colored rings, providing valuable insights for those interested in optical phenomena and the properties of light.
