Last Updated: 2026-06-01 11:32:58
Abstract
Experiments covering atmospheric physics, meteorology and atmospheric dynamics, aerosol properties, ice nucleation and trace gas physics will be performed in the laboratory and partly outdoors.
Objective
This course delivers insights into various aspects of atmospheric physics. These will be acquired within individual experiments which cover the following topics: Wind and movement of air parcels, the analysis of particulate matter (aerosol particles), and their influence cloud formation and on the solar radiation that reaches the earth.
