There were a few more, but these six personally received the certificate for successfully completing their studies in Meteorology during the department's graduation ceremony, handed over by the Head of Studies, Prof. Dr. Felix Ament (left).

Whether Bachelor or Master in Meteorology or Master in Atmospheric Science: the topics of their theses demonstrate the full range of our discipline. For example, Niklas examined how dense a station measurement network must be to resolve wind gusts. Jannik studied the influence of atmospheric stratification on wind speed in the boundary layer. In the field of renewable energy, Merit investigated how the variability of wind direction affects the yield of wind farms in the German Bight. Janina was on board a research aircraft and focused on cloud remote sensing over the tropical Atlantic. Katharina wrote about tropical cyclones and their pulsating behavior, and Pietro wanted to understand whether and how global warming impacts higher altitudes.

We warmly congratulate all graduates of the past twelve months and wish them much success on their further path—whether in science, weather services, industry, or wherever their journey takes them!
