Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics will accept original research papers for publication following the recommendations of a review panel. The emphasis lies with the following topic areas: atmospheric dynamics and general circulation; synoptic meteorology; weather systems in specific regions such as the tropics the polar caps the oceans; atmospheric energetics; numerical modeling and forecasting; physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere including radiation optical effects electricity and atmospheric turbulence and transport processes: mathematical and statistical techniques applied to meteorological data sets Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics discusses physical and chemical processes - in both clear and cloudy atmospheres - including radiation optical and electrical effects precipitation and cloud microphysics.
