Book excerpt: Excerpt from Instructions to Marine Meteorological Observers: Circular M, Marine Division; January 1938 The ship's officer who avails himself of the radio weather broad casts, and constructs and studies weather maps as a regular feature of his work, will find that the science of meteorology is not dull, but on the contrary, full of interest. His meteorological work will cease to be a routine duty; his own observations will fit into the picture that comes to him on the weather map; the weather map will fit into the momentary picture of the circulation of the earth's atmosphere and its attendant phenomena. In order that the marine weather observer may make a beginning in the serious study of meteorology, if indeed he has not already done so, a description of methods of preparing weather maps is in cluded with these instructions, together with a list of publications that will be helpful in decoding radio weather broadcasts, analyzing the map, drawing inferences as to the weather of the future, and gaining a more thorough knowledge of world meteorology.
