Atmospheric Sciences

Studies in climate and meteorology focus on interactions between the atmosphere and the earth's surface. Projects range from greenhouse gas exchange measurements to studies of turbulent dispersion of trace gases to the microclimatology of human comfort outdoors (is ‘human comfort outdoors correct?). Much of the research relates to agriculture, such as management impacts on gas emissions and weather and climate impacts on crop yields. Climate and meteorology research is instrument and field work intensive, with a strong theoretical component, and encompasses the whole soil plant atmosphere continuum.

The University of Guelph’s SES distinguishes itself from other environmental science programs in that it comprises a true integration of the life and physical sciences to address important environmental problems in forest, aquatic and agro-ecosystems.
In addition to our unique research capabilities, the SES is committed to providing a learner-centered environmental science education to undergraduate and graduate students – one that is second to none in North America.
