Meteorology What is it? How does it work? Meteorology in action!!

Meteorology Meteorology: What is it? Science of weather and weather forecasting

Meteorology Meteorologists: What do they do? There are two kinds of Meteorologists: 1) Research Scientist: Studies how and why weather happens

Meteorology Meteorologists: What do they do? There are two kinds of Meteorologists: 2) Weather Forecaster: Predicts what the future weather will be

Meteorology Meteorology: How is it done? Meteorology uses all of the following things: Science “Small” Computers Speaking Math Big Computers!! Thinking

Meteorology Meteorology: What do we measure? We measure many things about the atmosphere: Temperature Clouds Air pressure Wind Water Vapor Wind Pressure Rain

Meteorology 1) We can measure the atmosphere directly: Old Way New Way Weather Balloons Air- Buoy plane Weather Ship Meteorology: How do we measure?

Meteorology Meteorology: How do we measure? 2) We can measure the atmosphere from a distance: Doppler Radar (Rain) Weather Satellite (Clouds) Doppler-on-Wheels

Meteorology Meteorology: What do we do next? 1)Analyze and study the current weather (weather maps) 2)Use computers to predict the future of the whole atmosphere 3)Use the computer results to predict weather for your hometown
