He examines temperature variations, wind patterns, precipitation levels, and other meteorological phenomena, offering a comprehensive account of the city’s atmospheric environment.This volume lays the groundwork for modern climate science and environmental studies. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of meteorology, urban studies, and the long-term impact of human activity on the environment.
