Investigations in Weather and Climate

This lab manual offers a hands-on introduction to core concepts in weather and climate, built around meteorological diagrams, datasets, and weather maps. Designed to work entirely independently, it lets students explore both provided and self-sourced weather data, gaining practical experience with the tools used to investigate weather.
