1.00 Credits
This course focuses on deepening and broadening the student's knowledge of meteorological and environmental topics.? The course serves as a means of enhancing the effectiveness of the broadcast meteorologist as a forecaster and as the station scientist.? Possible topics include review and application of topics from the undergraduate meteorology curriculum to an operational broadcast setting, coverage of weather safety and global change issues, and survey of the earth, space, environmental, and related sciences covered by broadcast meteorologists in their role as the station scientist. Prerequisites & Notes The co-requisite is senior standing in a meteorology major.? This course is offered every semester. Credits: 1
-
3.00 Credits
This comprehensive course focuses on numerical weather prediction. The instruction covers such topics as the governing equations, numerical methods, history of numerical models in meteorology, initialization, objective analysis, and atmospheric predictability. Prerequisites & Notes The prerequisites are MET 3321 and MET 3331. There is a lab fee. This course is offered every odd-numbered spring. Credits: 3

3.00 Credits
This course provides a comprehensive study of the structure, evolution, and dynamics of atmospheric phenomena having spatial scales between 2 and 2,000 km. Topics include sea/land/lake breezes, the dryline, coastal fronts, gust fronts, air-mass thunderstorms, multicell thunderstorms, supercells, mesoscale convective systems, bow echoes, derechoes, tornadoes, and gravity waves. Students will study the phenomena through examination of data from a variety of observing platforms, mesoscale models, case studies, and multi-media instructional modules. Prerequisites & Notes The prerequisites are MET 3321 and MET 3331. There is a lab fee. This course is offered every even-numbered spring. Credits: 3
