Emagrams or SkewT thermodynamic diagram

[dazzas1066]

Hi

I want to get some information of understanding emagrams, how to read them what the different results would refer to etc...Ideally for a begfinner.

I am a paraglider and I know they would be very helpful to me. I would be very grateful if someone can point me to online literature or recommend a book.

Many thanks

Darren

Hi All,

Thanks for this. it is very helpful. It also indirectly lead me to the site below

https://www.meted.ucar.edu/

This appears to have a great free training module, with free registration. Just search under Skew T for the Skew T mastery course.

Thanks again

Yup, we used the Skew T mastery course on that site for our thermodynamics module this year! Helped me a lot.
