CLIMATOLOGY And It's APPLICATION - RTC, Regional Training ...

Aim’s of climatology, is the object to climatology to make us familiar with the
average condition of the atmosphere in different part of the earth’s surface, as well
as to inform us concerning any departures from these conditions which may occur at
the same place during long intervals of time. Brevity demands that in the description
of the climate of any place, only those weather conditions which are of most
frequent occurrence, i.e., the mean conditions, shall be used to characterize it. To
give in detail the whole history of the weather phenomena of the district is obviously
out of the question. Nevertheless, if we are to present a correct picture, and if the
information furnished is to be of practical value, some account should also be given
of the extent to which, in individual cases, there may be departures from the average
conditions.
