CourseDetails
• Fundamentals of Atmospheric Dynamics: An introduction to the basic principles and concepts governing atmospheric motions, including the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy.
• Atmospheric Thermodynamics: A study of the temperature structure and heat budget of the atmosphere, with a focus on the first and second laws of thermodynamics.
• Cloud Physics: Examination of the microphysical processes that govern cloud formation, growth, and dissipation, including the role of aerosols and cloud condensation nuclei.
• Weather Analysis and Forecasting: An introduction to the techniques and tools used by meteorologists to analyze weather patterns and make short-term forecasts, including numerical weather prediction models.
• Synoptic Meteorology: Study of the large-scale weather systems that affect weather patterns over broad regions, including mid-latitude cyclones, fronts, and tropical cyclones.
• Radar and Satellite Meteorology: Overview of the remote sensing technologies used to observe and monitor weather systems, including weather radar and satellite imagery.
• Climate Dynamics: Examination of the long-term patterns of weather and climate, including the role of ocean currents, atmospheric circulation, and solar radiation.
• Severe Weather and Climate Extremes: Study of the physical processes that lead to severe weather events, such as tornadoes, thunderstorms, and floods, as well as the impacts of climate change on extreme weather events.
• Numerical Weather Prediction: In-depth exploration of the mathematical models used to predict weather patterns, including the underlying assumptions and limitations of these models.
