13 Facts About Meteorology

Meteorology is a branch of the atmospheric sciences with a major focus on weather forecasting.

Meteorology has application in many diverse fields such as the military, energy production, transport, agriculture, and construction.

Meteorology observed that air temperature decreased with increasing height and that clouds contain moisture.

Meteorology noted that heat caused objects to rise, and therefore the heat on a summer day would drive clouds to an altitude where the moisture would freeze.

Meteorology believed that fire and water opposed each other in the atmosphere, and when fire gained the upper hand, the result was summer, and when water did, it was winter.
