摘要:
Meteorology is one of those sciences which developed on the side of practical application for the welfare of mankind to a far greater extent than the development on the scientific or pure theory side of the problem. As a result, meteorologists responsible for the practical applications to human welfare are at a distinct disadvantage on account of the imperfect and incomplete theoretical development of the science.The United States was distinctly the pioneer among all nations in officially and formally creating a meteorological service. This was done by a joint resolution of Congress in 1870, which provided that advices, warnings and forecasts concerning future weather conditions should be prepared and issued for the benefit of agriculture, commerce and navigation.
