A new study by researchers including those at the University of Tokyo revealed that atmospheric gravity waves play a crucial ...

Atmospheric dynamics encompasses all physical processes within atmospheres, including global and regional-scale circulation, convection, tropical and extratropical cyclones, and interannual ...

Many of the most pressing problems in environmental science, such as El Nino, the ozone hole, and global warming intimately involve the motions of the atmosphere and the oceans. Students and faculty ...

Atmospheric turbulence and boundary layer equations. Secondary circulation and spindown. Quasi-geostrophic prediction, diagnosis of vertical motion, and baroclinic disturbances. Atmospheric ...

Qi Zhang, a doctoral student at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics and Umeå University, explores in her doctoral thesis ...

Her research group explores the dynamics of the atmospheric boundary layer, with applications to wind energy, urban meteorology, and surface-atmosphere interaction. They employ numerical weather ...

By analyzing these differences, researchers can improve their understanding of fundamental atmospheric dynamics, which may ultimately contribute to better climate models for Earth too.

Aerospace engineers found that greenhouse gas emissions are changing the environment of near-Earth space in ways that, over time, will reduce the number of satellites that can safely operate there.

The Greenland Ice Sheet is the largest ice mass in the Northern Hemisphere, and it's melting rapidly. Climate change is ...

Meteorology in ATM-MP is further divided into dynamic meteorology and biometeorology. Dynamic meteorology is about large-scale atmospheric dynamics, modelling and observation techniques. In comparison ...
