Learning outcomes
Analyze the patterns of occurrence and development processes and phenomena in the atmosphere in their interaction with other geospheres (ELO 01). To know modern methods of meteorology research and be able to to apply them in production and research activities (PLO07). Identify and classify known and record new phenomena and processes in the atmosphere, their properties and their inherent features (WP13).
Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. successful mastering of the disciplines "Meteorology" and "Climatology"; 2. knowledge of theoretical foundations of the formation of the surface layer of the atmosphere.
Course content
The discipline "Microclimatology" is one of the components of the comprehensive training specialty "Earth Sciences" under the program "Meteorology". It is devoted to the study of vertical structure and horizontal variations of meteorological conditions in the surface layer air that arise under the influence of heterogeneities in the structure and condition of the underlying surface. This discipline involves familiarization with the basic physical processes that determine the features of microclimate formation and patterns of its manifestation in different forms of relief, under the influence of vegetation, water bodies, urban development, etc.

Assessment methods and criteria
Control is carried out by a modular rating system. The maximum score is 100 points, 60 of which a student can gain during semester control and 40 points - at the exam. Mandatory for the exam is knowledge of the methodology of microclimatic research and the laws of formation of the main types of microclimates.
