Research activity is particularly focused on mesoscale (~1 to 100s of km) and synoptic scale (~1000 km) processes. Phenomena that fall into this theme include extratropical cyclones, fronts, tropical cyclones and hurricanes, mountain waves, mesoscale convective systems, cloud initiation and evolution, and boundary-layer circulations.</p> Thu, 28 Feb 2019 14:30:11 +0000 amna.jabeen@mcgill.ca 2310 at /meteo /meteo/aos-research/climate <p>The Climate group carries out a wide range of research centered around four major themes/ areas.  The areas and the associated faculty members are:</p> Thu, 28 Feb 2019 14:24:24 +0000 amna.jabeen@mcgill.ca 2309 at /meteo /meteo/aos-research/atmospheric-chemistry-physics <p>The air we breathe consists mostly of molecular nitrogen and oxygen, yet the atmosphere contains a multitude of other, less abundant chemical species, including reactive gases, aerosol particles, liquid water and ice clouds. Atmospheric chemistry and physics is the broad field within atmospheric science concerned with the quantitative understanding of the atmospheric chemical composition, physicochemical properties of gaseous and airborne particulate matter, clouds and precipitation, and their interactions with solar and terrestrial radiation.</p> Thu, 28 Feb 2019 14:10:03 +0000 amna.jabeen@mcgill.ca 2308 at /meteo /meteo/channels/news/pdf-mainak-ganguly-and-prof-parisa-ariya-article-published-nature-publishing-291390 <p>Our department is happy to share another achievement of prof. Parisa Ariya's scientific group. Their study about the development of sustainable and recyclable technology for removal of toxic metals such as mercury, <b>instantaneously</b>, has been published in the Scientific Reports section of the international journal of science, Nature Publishing. This technique uses metals which are found in airborne particles and on soil, and it does not use energy, and recycle and remove all materials.</p> Mon, 05 Nov 2018 19:07:34 +0000 calin.giurgiu@mcgill.ca 2271 at /meteo
