Similarly, the applied climatology is a scientific use of climatic data. Due to its wide usage, it has become more popular.
Firstly, it includes the Atmosphere — compositions and structure; elements of weather and climate.
Secondly, it includes Insolation — the angle of incidence and distribution; heat budget of the earth — heating and cooling of the atmosphere;
Thirdly, it includes the temperature— factors controlling the temperature; distribution of temperature — horizontal and vertical; inversion of temperature
Further, it may include Pressure — pressure belts; winds-planetary seasonal and local, air masses and fronts; tropical and extratropical cyclones
Precipitation — evaporation; condensation — dew, frost, fog, mist and cloud; rainfall — types and world distribution.
Lastly, it may include World climates — classification of Koeppen climatic variation, greenhouse effect, global warming and climatic changes.
Due to modern advances, climatology has led to the further development of geography.
Introduction We all are familiar with rain or precipitation but, many of us do not know what are the types of precipitation and rainfall, what is the difference between hail and snow or difference between drizzle and rain etc. So, in this article, I will cover all the topic related to the types of precipitation […]
What are Tropical Cyclones? Tropical cyclones represent a circulatory motion of air towards a low-pressure centre. These low-pressure centres are known by various names based upon their characteristics, intensity and, distribution. The origin and development of these cyclones require the presence of some favourable conditions. In these cyclones, the wind blows counter-clockwise in the northern

Temperate cyclones are referred to as mid-latitude depression or extra tropical cyclones. They are known as extra tropical cyclones or frontal cyclones.
