Abstract
This volume, the fourth in a four-volume series, is a climatological study of the Mediterranean Coast and Northeast Africa, an area that includes the coastlines of western and southern Turkey through Libya, plus the countries of Egypt, Libya, Chad, and Sudan. After describing the general geography of these areas, it discusses the major meteorological features of the entire study region. Each major subregion (based on 'climatic commonality') is then broken into its own geography and general weather sections. Finally, the four so-called 'seasons' in each of these subregions are discussed in detail.
