课程编码：1801010706I0P1003Y 英文名称：Introduction of Weather and Climate 课时：40 学分：2.00 课程属性：学科核心课 主讲教师：陈光华等

In this course, we will introduce the interesting topics in the weather and climate. We will cover the following main topics. The atmospheric structure, temperature and energy cycle and so on will be introduced. The basic concept of atmospheric motion and instability will be presented to understand some major weather phenomena, such as mid-latitude front, monsoon weather, typical synoptic and mesoscale systems, and tropical cyclone. In terms of climatic aspects, we also give the impacts of the greenhouse gases and the aerosols on the global warming and the sea level rise. We will also discuss the uncertainty and the complexity of the spatial and the temporal variabilities of these climate effect. In addition, we will introduce several important climate variabilities and events, including the El Ni?o Southern Oscillation, the Pacific Decadal Oscillation and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation, etc. We will briefly introduce the physical processes and mechanisms in the atmosphere-ocean interactions and the atmospheric teleconnections. Finally, we will provide a brief introduction to the climate observational system and the climate numerical models, which are frequently used in the climate research.
