Meteorology 1
This unit will explore atmospheric composition, structure, energy transfer, wind, water, and precipitation. Understanding the mechanics of the atmosphere and long term observation of the weather are both important for the basic weather prediction that we will do in class. The videos below are highlights from in class work.
