Applied Climatology: Applied climatology aims to make the maximum use of
meteorological and climatological knowledge and information for solving
practical social, economic and environmental problems. Climatological services
have been designed for a variety of public, commercial and industrial users.
Further, assessments of the impact of climate variability and climate change on
human activities, as well as the impact of human activities on climate, are major
factors in local, national and global economic development, social programmes,
and resource management.
Applied Climatology explores the relation of climate to other
phenomena and considers its potential effects on human welfare and even
confronting the possibility of modifying climate to meet human needs. Thus
applied climatology emphasizes relation, collaboration and interdependence of
many sciences and utility of climatic data and information. New combinations of
climatology and other sciences include such as Paleoclimatology,
Hydroclimatology, Agroclimatology, Bioclimatology, Medical climatology,
Building climatology and Urban climatology, etc.
