Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The course deals with processes and atmospheric processes in relation to other geoscientific disciplines. And secondly in terms of operational weather forecasting and synoptics, but also in terms of paleoclimatology and climate evolution in the geological history of Earth. From this perspective, are also discussed weather extremes - as the problems of weather forecasting services, as possible manifestations of climate change is discussed as well as phenomena that can be partially reconstructed using paleoclimatological methods. Changes in the natural environment in the Holocene are again related to a combination of climate conditions and human activities. And these changes are re-discussed in relation to changing temperature and precipitation regime of the area. At the level of data collection options are demonstrated ground and distance of data collection using remote sensing methods. The last part of the course emphasizes the physical processes in the implementation of meteorological (NWFS) and climate (GCM) models. They mentioned some aspects of these instruments at the collection and assimilation of data, their uncertainties, operation and interpretation of results. Attention is also paid to their connection to the GIT and hydrological models.
