Weather radar station

The study of the physical characteristics of the atmosphere falls within the purview of atmospheric scientists. Those interested in a career in this technical area should recognize that there are several categories of specialization. The major group of specialists are operational meteorologists, who are responsible for weather forecasts. They have to carefully study the temperature, humidity, wind speed, and barometric pressure from a number of weather stations to make daily and long-range forecasts. They use data from weather satellites, radar, special sensors, and observation stations in other locations to make forecasts.
