Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex interactions between the atmosphere, land, and sea around the island of Ireland. Set against the backdrop of national and international scientific debates, it brings together a collection of observations on weather, climate, and human activities that serve as a fascinating insight into the groundbreaking scientific thought of the 18th and 19th centuries when modern meteorology was being born. A series of essays and papers explore topics such as global weather patterns, the influence of the moon, solar spots, and the harvest moon on the climate, as well as the effect of forestry on rainfall and drainage.
