What will I learn?
Dive into Atmospheric Dynamics to grasp rapid coastal weather shifts. Master lower-troposphere thermodynamics, stability analysis, CAPE calculations, and skew-T log-P diagrams. Advance to upper-air patterns, jet streams, frontogenesis, and vorticity. Hands-on with real data, reanalysis products, and structured methods to read maps, pinpoint vertical motions, and produce precise forecast alerts.
