Meteorological Consultants

If you need the expertise of Meteorological Consultants, this Yellow Pages® heading can help you find them. Meteorological Consultants are professional experts in Meteorology, which is the study of the earth’s atmosphere, and the study of weather. Meteorology became an ever important and controversial field of science when the issue of global warming and the conviction of ‘going green’ earned the international focus of environmentalists and political leaders all over the world. The expertise of meteorologists in studying the atmosphere is most urgently felt and needed today, in these times when each human being has to learn and re-learn how to take care of Mother Earth.

Meteorology is divided into five specialised sciences that deal with every aspect of the earth’s atmosphere. For example, there is the study of the formation of clouds, rain, thunderstorms, and lightning. Fascinating visual events such as mirages, rainbows, and halos are also being studied in the context of physical meteorology.  Aside from this discipline, there are four other specialised sciences, which are dynamic meteorology, synoptic meteorology, agricultural meteorology, and micrometeorology.

Dynamic meteorology is the science that deals with the study of winds and the laws that govern atmospheric motion. Synoptic meteorology, meanwhile, involves weather forecasting and the study and analysis of large weather patterns and systems that exist beyond twenty-four hours. Agricultural meteorology, on the other hand, involves the study of weather and its effectual relationship to crops and vegetation. Micrometeorology is the science applied when the study of atmospheric conditions over an area smaller than one square kilometre is being conducted. Australia, like all other countries, has an executive agency mandated to provide weather services to the country and its surrounding areas. This agency is the Bureau of Meteorology. However, several other private firms could cater to your meteorological consultancy needs. They are located all over Australia.
