Abstract Wood waste can be found easily around us. It is usually used as household fuel resulting burning smoke that pollutes the air and reduces oxygen intake, later it would have a contribution to climate change. As alternative, to reduce air pollution due to wood waste combustion, it can be use as part of media artwork. This study used action research to create mixed-media artwork by utilizing the wood waste to reduce wood waste from industry. The results of this study are expected to help maintain eco-friendly industry and reduce the impact of climate change.

The second edition of this concise, affordable textbook is ideal for curious undergraduate majors and non-majors taking a first course in meteorology. The first two chapters introduce readers to the main concepts and tools used to analyze weather patterns. Chapters 3-8 provide a foundational understanding of the fundamental processes taking place in the atmosphere, and in Chapters 9-12 these physical concepts are applied to specific weather phenomena. Weather concepts are then used in Chapters 13-15 to explain weather forecasting, air pollution, and the impact of climate change on weather. Key concepts are illustrated through a running case study of a single mid-latitude cyclone, providing students with an opportunity to progressively develop their understanding of weather phenomena with a familiar example approached from multiple perspectives. This edition includes expanded and updated coverage of precipitation types and formation, satellite and radar technology, tornadoes, and more. It also features thought-provoking end-of-chapter review questions, new visual analysis exercises, an expanded test bank and nearly 100 new figures.
