Met ref......

I have found this book to be an extremely good reference over the years for a non-meteorologist; this coming from a biogeochemist - I have used it for years and am now buying it. Another very good reference is Stahl (of course)

Oke is the man

This is the most valuable book for any climatologist. It contains the staples of this subject.

Something wrong!

Why don't we make this good book even better? I happened to notice that the 2nd equation of A1.2 on page 339 was wrong. Cosine value should always be between -1 and +1. In table A3.1 on page 393, SI unit for the last three columns is also problematic. I think it should be sqaure meter per second multiplied by 10 to -6. Check those out.
