Section overview
Description
The climate system with its complex interactions and feedbacks does not easily support single process oriented approaches. However, process understanding remains the key to understand nature through analysis and model building. Here the common research mission at the Department of Meteorology is Surface- Atmosphere-Interaction with the necessary, i.e. microscale to mesoscale resolution. A structure with three working groups has proofed to foster the research needs. In the last ten years the scope of the Department of Meteorology at the Dresden University of Technology was considerable enlarged, remote sensing and boundary layer modeling became additional important research areas.
