Printing: Print at 100% / actual size on A4 or US Letter. Most inside pages use light backgrounds and print well in black and white; the cover is dark, so print that in colour or skip it to save ink.

Every fact is written in our own words and checked against named sources from Encyclopaedia Britannica, the Royal Meteorological Society, the Met Office, Physical Review Letters, Nature and Keul (2021) (checked 14 Nov 2026); the sources are listed on the credits page. Where sources give different figures, each is shown with its source.

Drawings are our own, simplified and not to scale. This pack is independent and is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, Encyclopaedia Britannica, the Royal Meteorological Society, the Met Office, the American Physical Society, Springer Nature or Copernicus Publications.
