ATMS 520
Fall 2022 Part of Term 1
Aug 22-Dec 7
Credit: 4 hours.
Key focus is the basic understanding, as well as the prediction and observations, of high-impact weather phenomena like thunderstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes, and blizzards, and their attendant hazards and impacts on society. To build to that, quantitative properties, principles, and observations of weather and climate will be introduced. This includes, but is not limited to: the analysis and interpretation of meteorological data, including that collected by Doppler radar, the application of principles of thermodynamics to describe the formation of clouds and precipitation, and the application of principles of dynamics to explore why air flows and rotation develops.
4 graduate hours. No professional credit. Cannot be used to satisfy course requirements for on-campus MS and PHD programs in Atmospheric Sciences. On-campus students must take ATMS 500 and 504. Prerequisite: Restricted to graduate standing or consent of instructor.
