Welcome to the Department of Meteorology and Geophysics Vienna (IMGW)

Our work applies mathematics and physics to the study of physical processes occuring in and around the Earth, combining field observation, experimentation and computation as well as remote imaging. This work is based on ground-breaking research that started in 1851.

Within meteorology and geophysics, much of our research is devoted to weather prediction, computational meteorology, climatology, seismology, and Earth's gravity.
