The entire range of research topics at the Meteorological Institute was showcased in the first “Atmospheric Study Project Colloquium”. Students from the Atmospheric Science program presented the current status of their master’s theses. The topics covered varied widely, from tropical cyclones to clouds and cold pools, as well as wind farms in the North Sea and pollutants from chimneys in residential areas. The methods used were equally diverse: whether simulations on supercomputers, measurements at sea, or modeling in wind tunnels – this event demonstrated how various disciplines interconnect and influence each other. This colloquium is part of the curriculum and will be held regularly at the end of each semester in the future.
