  • application of physics to the study of the atmosphere
    Good to know
    • Atmospheric physics has close links to meteorology and climatology and also covers the design and construction of instruments for studying the atmosphere and the interpretation of the data they provide, including remote sensing instruments.

atmospheric physics
Usage examples
  • The state of the Earth’s global climate system is the result of the balance between radiation absorbed from the Sun and that emitted by the planet, and governed by the properties of the surface and atmospheric constituents. AOS research in atmospheric physics is focused on understanding the intricate nature of the radiative, convective, microphysical and dynamical processes together with their interactions in the surface-atmosphere system, and how they govern the thermal state and hydrological cycle of the planet on different space and time scales.
