Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences
Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences is a field that studies the Earth's atmosphere and its interactions with the planet's surface and space. This discipline includes understanding weather patterns, climate change, and the processes that drive atmospheric phenomena. Researchers in this field use data from satellites, weather stations, and computer models to analyze and predict atmospheric behavior.
In addition to Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences also examines other celestial bodies, such as Mars and Venus, to understand their atmospheres and climates. This comparative study helps scientists learn about planetary formation, evolution, and the potential for life beyond Earth.
