This course covers the topic of thermodynamics, with a focus on water in the atmosphere. Water exists in three states: vapor, liquid, and solid. Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air and is influenced by changes in temperature and pressure.

During phase changes, latent heat is either released or absorbed, playing a vital role in atmospheric processes. The course also examines adiabatic heating and cooling, as well as the concept of atmospheric stability.

This course covers the following topics:

  • Humidity
  • Change of state of aggregation
  • Adiabatic processes
