Overview
Climate and atmospheric science explores the structure and evolution of the physical climate system, and includes addressing how we forecast our weather as well as how we understand the climate. Weather and climate are both critical to understanding the natural and built environment and how it is changing under anthropogenic and other influences. Climate and Atmospheric science is an interdisciplinary science that draws on the strengths of environmental science, applied mathematics and physical geography and the applications of concepts in physics and chemistry.
