Atmospheric Dynamics

Atmospheric dynamics is the study of the movement of gases, particulates, and energy within the Earth's atmosphere. It involves analyzing how these constituents interact with each other, how they are affected by forces such as the Coriolis force or gravity, and how these forces in turn affect the climate. Through atmospheric dynamics, scientists can better understand how storms, wind currents, and climate are affected by the atmosphere. This knowledge is critical to accurately predicting and responding to extreme weather events and informing policy decisions related to climate change.
