What is Climatology?
Climatology and biometeorology study the interactions between the atmosphere and the living organisms on the planet or biosphere. Of course this covers a very large range of subjects. At USU the focus is on the connections between various land ecosystems and the atmosphere.
Research in the USU Climatology program includes subjects such as water vapor exchanges over vegetation and evapotranspiration. CO2 exchanges and annual balances of ecosystems, remote sensing of land surfaces and connections to various climate processes at a range of scales.
