What is Climatology?

The upward movement of air caused by a topographic barrier, such as a mountain, which can lead to cloud formation and precipitation.

A long, narrow region in the atmosphere that transport water vapor, like a river in the sky.

A periodic cooling of sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean, often leading to altered global...

A drainage wind that flows downhill due to gravity, often associated with cold air descending from elevated regions.

Condensation pressure deficit refers to the difference between the actual vapor pressure and the saturation vapor pressure...

Indicates the amount of water the soil can absorb/retain through percolation. This capacity is around 7% in sandy soil and...

A cold front is the leading edge of a cold air mass that replaces a warmer air mass. It is typically associated with sudden...
