Summary
Studies the physical processes of the atmosphere and solid earth to observe, model, and forecast weather, climate, and geophysical phenomena. Spans operational forecasting (interpreting WRF/GFS/ECMWF output, issuing advisories and warnings), instrumentation and field measurement (weather balloons, radar, satellites, seismographs, gravimeters, magnetometers), and computational science (numerical weather/climate modeling, data assimilation, and ML in HPC environments). Distinct from purely data-engineering or software roles by its grounding in geophysical fluid dynamics and atmospheric/earth physics; distinct from hydrology-only and pure-academic-teaching focuses.
