Product Description:
The weather and climates go hand in hand, and this 29-minute video examines the way weather is created and what climates are. By gathering data and applying environmental science, physics and math to it, it is possible for researchers to discover far more about the way climates function. The use of science to interpret the expansive amount of data gathered is covered in this informative video that delves into the world of climate science. Both meteorology and climatology are covered in this film that teaches about the tools scientists use to analyze the weather. Also learn about the way the sun, wind and the clouds work together to create many kinds of weather. Natural disasters, weather forecasting, weather warnings and the way the ozone layer has been depleted are also discussed.

Customer Reviews

In order to predict the weather and understand how climates work, researchers rely on environmental science, mathematics, physics, and information technology. These sciences are used to interpret vast amounts of terrestrial, atmospheric, and oceanic data.
This program introduces the sciences of climatology and meteorology. It explains how scientific tools work such as anemometers, weather radar, satellites, and barometers. The program also explains how the clouds, wind and the sun interact to create different types of weather. The depletion of the ozone layer is discussed along with natural disaster tracking. Filmed with the assistance of the Bureau of Meteorology in Australia. (29 minutes)


Segments in this video include:
  • Significance of Weather – The introduction focuses on the importance of weather to humans and how weather affects human activity.
  • Weather: In the Beginning – Weather plays a huge rule in how the world is shaped. Humans have attempted to predict and understand weather for a long time.
  • What is Weather and How is it Measured? – Weather shows the daily changes in temperature, atmospheric pressure, and much more. A wide range of different tools are used to measure weather.
  • How Do We Forecast the Weather? - Meteorology is the prediction of weather. Oceanic, terrestrial, and atmospheric data are collected by satellites and fed into computers that analyze the data in order to predict weather.
  • Weather Warnings and Natural Disasters – People must be warned about severe weather such as bush fires, tsunamis and cyclones. Meteorologists used sophisticated equipment to predict weather changes and issue warnings for the safety of the public.
  • Global Climate – High tech equipment is used to measure the levels of ozone in the atmosphere. A global fleet of profiling floats observes signals related to climate change.
