Climate Dynamics

a web-based study guide for undergraduates

Class overview

To understand why there is weather requires learning a combination of fundamental concepts based on dynamic and thermodynamic theories.

This study guide is derived from online and YouTube lectures of the "Dynamic Meteorology" course, which is taught by most universities that offer a B.S. degree in Atmospheric Science*. Readers can refer to the following textbooks for a more complete learning.

*A typical "dynamics course" in climate or atmospheric science consists of 2-3 semesters with more advanced graduate courses.

First, students should familiar themselves with the definition of what consists of a climate system. This 2-hr documentary is a great start: 👁 👁
