| education needed to be a meteorologist: Earth Science and Applications from Space National Research Council, Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences, Space Studies Board, Committee on Earth Science and Applications from Space: A Community Assessment and Strategy for the Future, 2007-10-01 Natural and human-induced changes in Earth's interior, land surface, biosphere, atmosphere, and oceans affect all aspects of life. Understanding these changes requires a range of observations acquired from land-, sea-, air-, and space-based platforms. To assist NASA, NOAA, and USGS in developing these tools, the NRC was asked to carry out a decadal strategy survey of Earth science and applications from space that would develop the key scientific questions on which to focus Earth and environmental observations in the period 2005-2015 and beyond, and present a prioritized list of space programs, missions, and supporting activities to address these questions. This report presents a vision for the Earth science program; an analysis of the existing Earth Observing System and recommendations to help restore its capabilities; an assessment of and recommendations for new observations and missions for the next decade; an examination of and recommendations for effective application of those observations; and an analysis of how best to sustain that observation and applications system. |
| education needed to be a meteorologist: Urban Meteorology National Research Council, Division on Earth and Life Studies, Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate, Committee on Urban Meteorology: Scoping the Problem, Defining the Needs, 2012-06-13 According to the United Nations, three out of five people will be living in cities worldwide by the year 2030. The United States continues to experience urbanization with its vast urban corridors on the east and west coasts. Although urban weather is driven by large synoptic and meso-scale features, weather events unique to the urban environment arise from the characteristics of the typical urban setting, such as large areas covered by buildings of a variety of heights; paved streets and parking areas; means to supply electricity, natural gas, water, and raw materials; and generation of waste heat and materials. Urban Meteorology: Forecasting, Monitoring, and Meeting Users' Needs is based largely on the information provided at a Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate community workshop. This book describes the needs for end user communities, focusing in particular on needs that are not being met by current urban-level forecasting and monitoring. Urban Meteorology also describes current and emerging meteorological forecasting and monitoring capabilities that have had and will likely have the most impact on urban areas, some of which are not being utilized by the relevant end user communities. Urban Meteorology explains that users of urban meteorological information need high-quality information available in a wide variety of formats that foster its use and within time constraints set by users' decision processes. By advancing the science and technology related to urban meteorology with input from key end user communities, urban meteorologists can better meet the needs of diverse end users. To continue the advancement within the field of urban meteorology, there are both short-term needs-which might be addressed with small investments but promise large, quick returns-as well as future challenges that could require significant efforts and investments. |
| education needed to be a meteorologist: Reginald Sutcliffe and the Invention of Modern Weather Systems Science Jonathan E. Martin, 2021-03-15 Despite being perhaps the foremost British meteorologist of the twentieth century, Reginald Sutcliffe has been understudied and underappreciated. His impact continues to this day every time you check the weather forecast. Reginald Sutcliffe and the Invention of Modern Weather Systems Science not only details Sutcliffe’s life and ideas, but it also illuminates the impact of social movements and the larger forces that propelled him on his consequential trajectory. Less than a century ago, a forecast of the weather tomorrow was considered a practical impossibility. This book makes the case that three important advances guided the development of modern dynamic meteorology, which led directly to the astounding progress in weather forecasting—and that Sutcliffe was the pioneer in all three of these foundational developments: the application of the quasi-geostrophic simplification to the equations governing atmospheric behavior, adoption of pressure as the vertical coordinate in analysis, and development of a diagnostic equation for vertical air motions. Shining a light on Sutcliffe’s life and work will, hopefully, inspire a renewed appreciation for the human dimension in scientific progress and the rich legacy bequeathed to societies wise enough to fully embrace investments in education and basic research. As climate change continues to grow more dire, modern extensions of Sutcliffe’s innovations increasingly offer some of the best tools we have for peering into the long-term future of our environment. |

| education needed to be a meteorologist: Breaking Through the Clouds Sandra Nickel, 2022-03-08 An inspiring picture book about the meteorologist whose discoveries helped us understand how weather works When Joanne Simpson (1923-2010) was a girl, she sailed her boat beneath the puffy white clouds of Cape Cod. As a pilot, she flew her plane so high, its wings almost touched them. And when World War II began and Joanne moved to the University of Chicago, a professor asked her to teach Air Force officers about those very clouds and the weather-changing winds. As soon as the war ended, Joanne decided to seriously study the clouds she had grown to love so much. Her professors laughed. They told her to go home. They told her she was no longer needed. They told her, No woman ever got a doctorate in meteorology. And no woman ever will. But Joanne was stubborn. She sold her boat. She flew her last flight. She saved her money so that she could study clouds. She worked so hard and discovered so much that—despite what the professors said—she received a doctorate in meteorology. She was the first woman in the world to do so. Breaking Through the Clouds tells the story of a trailblazing scientist whose discoveries about clouds and how they work changed everything we know about weather today. |

| education needed to be a meteorologist: Eloquent Science David Schultz, 2013-01-16 Mary Grace Soccio. My writing could not please this kindhearted woman, no matter how hard I tried. Although Gifed and Talented seventh-grade math posed no problem for me, the same was not true for Mrs. Soccio’s English class. I was frustrated that my frst assignment only netted me a C. I worked harder, making re- sion afer revision, a concept I had never really put much faith in before. At last, I produced an essay that seemed the apex of what I was capable of wr- ing. Although the topic of that essay is now lost to my memory, the grade I received was not: a B?. “Te best I could do was a B??” Te realization sank in that maybe I was not such a good writer. In those days, my youthful hubris did not understand abouc t apacity bui- ing. In other words, being challenged would result in my intellectual growth— an academic restatement of Nietzsche’s “What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.” Consequently, I asked to be withdrawn from Gifed and Talented English in the eighth grade. |
| education needed to be a meteorologist: Environmental Risk Communication Mark D. Shull, Anthony J. Sadar, 2019-03-01 A public meeting with angry residents and eager reporters is a common feature on the local news. Whether addressing environmental, or other issues, the experience for the board members, consultants, and specialists at these meetings ranges from uncomfortable to nightmarish.

| education needed to be a meteorologist: Colorado Weather Almanac Mike Nelson, 2007 Weather book by esteemed CO meteorologist Mike Nelson |
| education needed to be a meteorologist: Introduction to Meteorology Sverre Petterssen, 2011-11-15 The aim of this book is to present in an elementary manner the basic principles of modern meteorology. Intended for students without previous acquaintance with the subject, it is written in response to a demand for a nontechnical text to serve the many short and elementary courses in meteorology already in progress in the United States. It is written more for the purpose of creating interest and background than for furnishing a technical and detailed discussion of the various branches of meteorology. For this reason the use of calculus in the presentation of meteorological theories has been avoided. Actually, this book is an expansion of a chapter on meteorology written for the British Empire edition and the American edition of Weems’s “Air Navigation” and an abbreviation of the author’s recent book “Weather Analysis and Forecasting.” However, this book is not addressed specifically to pilots or weather forecasters, although its leaning is decidedly toward synoptic and aeronautical meteorology. On account of its elementary character, the text does not contain references to meteorological journals and papers. Instead, a list of advanced textbooks is included to assist the reader in finding more advanced literature on meteorology. The author’s warm thanks go to Miss Margaret Whitcomb for her valuable assistance in revising the text, preparing the diagrams and tables, proofreading, and indexing. |

| education needed to be a meteorologist: Stalin’s Meteorologist Olivier Rolin, 2017-07-06 Shortlisted for the Pushkin House Russian Book Prize 2018 The beautifully illustrated, heartbreaking story of an innocent man in a Soviet gulag, told for the first time in English. One fateful day in 1934, a husband arranged to meet his wife under the colonnade of the Bolshoi theatre. As she waited for him in vain, he was only a few hundred metres away, in a cell in the notorious Lubyanka prison. Less than a year before, Alexey Wangenheim – a celebrated meteorologist – had been hailed by Stalin as a national hero. But following his sudden arrest, he was exiled to a gulag, forced to spend his remaining years on an island in the frozen north, along with thousands of other political prisoners. Stalin’s Meteorologist is the thrilling and deeply moving account of an innocent man caught up in the brutality of Soviet paranoia. It's a timely reminder of the human consequences of political extremism. |

| education needed to be a meteorologist: Careers in Meteorology and Atmospheric Science Institute for Career Research, 2015-08-01 METEOROLOGY IS THE STUDY OF THE atmospheric conditions that cause weather on earth. Most of these conditions occur in the troposphere, the layer of the atmosphere closest to the earth. Meteorologists can predict future weather conditions by studying patterns in temperature, air pressure, and water vapor. The media, private sector companies, and government agencies use these predictions to manage air and ocean traffic, predict crop yield, budget water, and in many other important ways. Weather is everywhere and so are meteorologists. These professionals can be found all over the world doing all sorts of interesting things. Some study the ozone layer and look for ways to prevent air pollution or global climate change. Some monitor rainfall and issue flash flood warnings, or fly in specialized aircraft to investigate hurricanes. Most work for government agencies, such as the National Weather Service, providing vital information to the public as well as the aviation, marine, and fire control communities. Beyond the government, the fastest growing area for meteorologists is private forecasting. Private forecasters serve clients with very specific needs for highly specialized forecasts. For example, they might work for commodities traders who want to know how the weather will affect future crop production and prices. They might keep utility companies informed about impending hot or cold weather that will put heavy demands on generating plants and transmission systems. Weather forecasting is at the heart of meteorology. The weather forecast that you get in your hometown is the end product of a worldwide effort by thousands of meteorologists in many nations. All those meteorologists use tools such as Doppler radar, satellites, and instruments that take precise atmospheric measurements to follow and analyze the huge systems that will eventually bring us our local weather. To be eligible for most entry-level jobs as a meteorologist, you will need to have at least a bachelor's degree in meteorology or a related field. Along with the degree, you will need some experience pertaining to meteorology and related disciplines, such as thermodynamics, climatology, and even statistics and chemistry. Most people get that experience through student training programs and internships. Some are fortunate enough to find employers that offer on-the-job training either in-house or in the field. Aspiring meteorologists can expect favorable job prospects, especially in private industry. The federal government will still be the largest single employer, with particular emphasis on research related to global climate change. Considering the economic impact of weather - an estimated $3 trillion a year - it is not surprising that the fastest job growth will be in private industry. The opportunities for weather broadcasters are limited and highly competitive. Meteorology is a good choice for anyone with a passion for weather events, a head for math and science, and a desire to do work that benefits others. It is routinely ranked among the best jobs in America because it offers job security, little stress, plenty of employment options, and excellent compensation. There are numerous rewards for anyone with the sound knowledge of meteorology and the ability to use it in atmospheric research or applied meteorology. This new Careers Ebook contains a wealth of unbiased information about an occupational field, based on the latest national surveys. Careers Ebooks cover attractive and unattractive sides, opportunities, education necessary, personal qualifications required, earnings, descriptions of different job specialties, first person accounts by those in the field, and how to get started; including practical advice on what to do now.
