Atmospheric Dynamics Course
Master coastal weather forecasting through the Atmospheric Dynamics Course. Gain skills to analyse fronts, jets, stability indices, and real observational data, transforming complex atmospheric patterns into reliable, actionable predictions for environmental and safety decisions. This course equips you with practical tools for understanding rapid weather shifts in coastal regions using thermodynamics, upper-air dynamics, and data interpretation techniques.

What will I learn?
This Atmospheric Dynamics Course equips you with essential tools to analyse and predict fast-changing coastal weather. Delve into lower-troposphere thermodynamics, stability assessment, CAPE calculations, and skew-T log-P diagram analysis. Progress to upper-air dynamics, including jet streams, frontogenesis, and vertical motion diagnostics. Hands-on practice with real observational data, reanalysis datasets like ERA5, and structured workflows enables you to interpret weather maps accurately and produce clear, impactful forecast messages and alerts for coastal environments.
