The book was prepared based on my publication Meteorology and oceanography. Terms, defi-nitions and explanation. 2nd Edition, which was released in 2019. This handbook is one of three books (meteorology, oceanography, and voyage planning) that I have written for military and civilian students of naval academies. This is my project, which I am carrying out as a retired admiral and a university teacher.
