Course learning objectives: The course provides an introduction to the atmospheric and climatic phenomena that characterise mountainous areas, on different spatial and temporal scales. The mechanisms conditioned by orography, both dynamic and thermal, and the phenomena associated with them (e.g. breeze circulations on slopes and in valleys, orographic convection, orographic precipitation) will be examined. Some illustrative physical-mathematical models of the processes will also be provided.
Course prerequisites: Basic physics and mathematics.
