INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM

"ATMOSPHERIC PHYSICS: SCIENCE AND EDUCATION"

(11 – 13 September 2007,  St. Petersburg-Petrodvorets, Ulyanovskaya 1),

 

devoted to 75-jubilee

of Atmospheric Physics Department at Saint-Petersburg State University (Leningrad State University)

 

Overview

Atmospheric Physics includes many branches of physics and adjacent sciences – chemistry, biology, etc. Studies in atmospheric physics are of very importance and practical actuality – the human life and activity depend essentially on the atmospheric state. The universality of atmospheric processes, the requirement for weather forecast lead to the necessity of the unique observing system (including ground-based, aircraft, balloon and space subsystems) for monitoring the atmosphere.

In the frames of the Symposium, actual problems of recent atmospheric physics - dynamics and energetics of planet atmospheres, radiative transfer, trace gases, clouds and aerosols, the forecast of weather and climate changes, local and remote measurement methods, new observation data, etc. - are planned to be discussed.
Special attention will be paid to the analysis of the effectiveness of different training methods (including the participation of students in scientific researches) and the development of international cooperation in atmospheric physics.

At the Symposium, only invited reports are planned as oral talks, authors and the list of invited reports are determined by the Program Committee. One of invited reports will be devoted to the history of the Physics Department at SPbSU and its main scientific achievements. Participants of the Symposium will able to antedate their thoughts by remembering past events.

In the frames of the Symposium, the competition of young scientist papers is planned.

The working languages of the Symposium are Russian and English.
