Mesoscale(1)授課內容：
隨著近年來觀測儀器(技術)的進步以及數值模式的廣泛應用，使得我們慢慢了解到，較劇烈且具傷害力的天氣現象(如強烈降水與風暴)常侷限於中小尺度的範疇。可是，由於發生這些劇烈天氣現象的原因相當多樣化且複雜，傳統的綜觀氣象理論基礎已無法滿足我們對於這些中尺度天氣現象的了解。本課程的內容除了說明中尺度基本概念與原理外，也會詳細介紹實際大氣各種不同的中尺度天氣系統，並廣泛說明它們內部的結構與隱含的物理與動力過程；這其中，現階段的了解為授課重心，然而目前最新的研究成果也會在課堂上適時予以補充說明。
As revealed by advances in observing technology such as Doppler radar remote sensing and in numerical modeling, it has been recognized that most of hazardous weather occurring in the real atmosphere are typically organized on an intermediate (viz. meso) scale. Particularly, because of the inherent complex of mesoscale phenomena, theoretical principal of the synoptic meteorology usually cannot be applied to explain dynamical processes associated with these severe weather events. The main objective of this course is to introduce various mesoscale phenomena occurring in the atmosphere, with special emphasis on their internal structure and associated dynamics. In this course, current understanding of mesoscale processes will be the major theme but it will be also complemented by including some new findings from the latest results of mesoscale research.
