Fall Semester

Climate Data 
Current Gustavus Weather
Course Objectives:  To more fully understand the atmospheric processes that are responsible for daily and seasonal weather patterns.  Unlike controlled laboratory experiments the real-time weather outside our window serves as the laboratory for this class.  As a consequence, our observations will unfortunately not always match our theories but on the positive side our everyday experiences and classroom learning can reinforce each other.  So, by paying close attention to the changing weather around the globe this semester and following weather information sources discussed in class, you will get more out of this course.  We conclude the course by considering the dynamics of global climate change and the ways that human activities may contribute to climate change.
