In this meteorology course, which is designed and serviced by the American Meteorological Society (AMS), students will access and work with current weather maps delivered via the Internet, and will coordinate these maps with learning activities keyed to the day’s weather. This study of the atmosphere includes weather systems from local to global scales, severe weather and current weather applications. The course meets three times per semester for evaluation. All other activities are executed solely on the Internet, with the faculty mentor guiding the student in understanding the basic principles of meteorology and analyzing real-time weather data. Offered spring semester. May be taken for graduate-level credit.
