For as long as he can remember, Christopher Tate, the senior majoring in meteorology and atmospheric science was fascinated with the weather.

Penn State alumnus Joe Gofus remembers precisely when he knew that he wasn’t going to become a weather forecaster.

Carl Chelius had a pretty exciting job as assistant professor and senior research pilot for the Department of Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences.

Lightning bolts break apart nitrogen and oxygen molecules in the atmosphere and create reactive chemicals that affect greenhouse gases.

Congratulations to the faculty and students in The Department of Meteorology and Atmospheric Science for their achievements and award recognition!
