Atmospheric Physics and Applied Meteorology

Welcome in PHYMET - an intensive course in (aeronautical) meteorology

The spoken language and most written sources such as the lecture notes (slides) and the recommended books in this course are in English. Questions may of course be asked in German.

Find more details on these topics in the Information folder (top left), where you also can find the declaration about the exams. Please read ALL information documents before the first lecture.
