On-Line Course in Weather Forecsting |
The purpose of this course is to provide a basic course in weather forecasting. It is assumed that you have completed an introductory course in meteorology but have had no other formal training in meteorology. Upon completion of this course you will be able to:
This course will occasionally make use of equations that are routinely part of dynamic meteorology courses. However, no equations will be derived. Of prime importance to this course is the meaning and application of these equations. Equations provide a bridge between the theoretical side of meteorology and practical weather forecasting.
This course includes main eight parts, each containing one or more lessons on some appropriate topic. Click on the lesson title to access the lesson.
