(The second edition of Mesoscale Meteorological Modeling i...)
The second edition of Mesoscale Meteorological Modeling is a fully revised resource for researchers and practitioners in the growing field of meteorological modeling at the mesoscale. Pielke has enhanced the new edition by quantifying model capability (uncertainty) by a detailed evaluation of the assumptions of parameterization and error propagation.

Roger Pielke was born on October 22, 1946, in the United States.
Roger A. Pielke studied at Towson University where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics in 1968. He also attended the Pennsylvania State University and received a Master of Science degree there in 1969 and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in meteorology in 1973.
Roger A. Pielke started his career as a research scientist at the National Ocean Service in 1971. He held this post until 1974 when he became an associate professor at the University of Virginia. In 1981 he took up a post of a professor at Colorado State University and held it until 2006. Pielke also was a deputy of the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere (CIRA) at Colorado State University from 1985 to 1988. From 1999 to 2006 he worked as a Colorado State Climatologist at Duke University. Since 2005 he worked as a Senior Research Scientist in Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere and also as a Senior Research Associate at the University of Colorado-Boulder in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences.
Roger A. Pielke wrote his first book Mesoscale Meteorological Modeling in 1984. Later he published such books as The Hurricane, Mesoscale Modeling of the Atmosphere and Hurricanes: Their Nature and Impacts on Society. Pielke is also a contributor to twenty-five books and two hundred articles to scientific journals. He also was Chief Editor of Monthly Weather Review, U.S. National Science Report and Journal of Atmospheric Science.

1984Roger A. Pielke has criticized the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for its conclusions regarding CO2 and global warming and accused it of selectively choosing data to support a selective view of the science.
Quotations: "As I have summarized on the Climate Science weblog, humans activities do significantly alter the heat content of the climate system, although, based on the latest understanding, the radiative effect of CO2 has contributed, at most, only about 28% to the human-caused warming up to the present. The other 72% is still a result of human activities!"
Roger A. Pielke has served as Chairman and Member of the American Meteorological Society Committee on Weather Forecasting and Analysis
Roger A. Pielke is married. He has two children.
