山区天气与气候哲学博士

我们的山区气象计划在美国是独一无二的，已得到国际认可，并具有全球影响力。这些工作的基础包括MesoWest，这是一个在美国范围内整合了表面和边界层观测结果的合作网络，包括风激光雷达，轮廓雷达，声雷达，大气探测系统和其他基于地面的测量系统在内的现场仪器，以及区域专业知识气候建模，中尺度建模，云尺度建模，边界层建模和可操作数值天气预报。空气质量，全球变化，水文学和雪科学等跨学科主题的研究涉及与机械工程，地理，地质和地球物理学，健康科学以及全球变化与可持续发展中心的合作伙伴的合作。
Our programs in mountain meteorology are unique in the United States, internationally recognized, and have global reach. Cornerstones for these efforts include MesoWest, a cooperative network that integrates surface and boundary layer observations across the United States, field instrumentation that includes wind lidars, profiling radars, sodars, atmospheric sounding systems, and other surface-based measurement systems, and expertise in regional climate modeling, mesoscale modeling, cloud-scale modeling, boundary layer modeling, and operational numerical weather prediction. Research on interdisciplinary topics such as air quality, global change, hydrology, and snow science involve collaborations with partners in Mechanical Engineering, Geography, Geology and Geophysics, Health Sciences, and the Global Change and Sustainability Cente
