Meteorology

Weather patterns, storm systems, hurricanes, and tornadoes—these are some of the many things that meteorologists study! In this exciting field, scientists learn about the different types of weather and atmospheric changes that happen around the world. Through these discoveries, we can learn both how to predict the weather coming in the next week and how to protect ourselves from larger, more dangerous weather patterns. Meteorologists chase storms, challenge the deadliest weather, and learn what we need to know about Earth's changing climate.
