Atmospheric Characteristics
Meteorology is the interdisciplinary scientific study of
the atmosphere that focuses on weather processes and
short term forecasting (in contrast with climatology).
Characteristic of atmosphere is its ability to resist
vertical motion: Stability
Affects atmospheric ability to disperse pollutants
When parcel of air is displaced upward
Encounters lower pressure
Expands to lower temperature
Assume no heat transfers to surrounding atmosphere
(adiabatic )
