What is Climatology?

A closed low, also known as a cut-off low, is a low-pressure system that is entirely isolated from the main atmospheric circulation...

Convection is the vertical movement of air caused by temperature differences, where warm air rises and cool air sinks. It...

A storm characterized by the presence of lightning and its acoustic effect on the Earth's atmosphere known as thunder.

The heating of the Earth by the sun causes daily changes in both the direction and speed of the wind. During the day, ground...

The percentage of water vapor in the air relative to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a given temperature.

Condensation pressure deficit refers to the difference between the actual vapor pressure and the saturation vapor pressure...

A thin, white cloud layer that is intertwined or separate, arranged in regular order, and does not cast a shadow.

A distinct layer in a body of water where the temperature changes rapidly with depth, separating warmer surface water from...

A condition in which the stratification of the atmosphere depends on both air temperature and pressure, and where surfaces...

An instrument used to measure the speed, force, and sometimes the direction of the wind. It can be cup or pressure tube anemometers....
