Learn about extratropical climate patterns and atmospheric blocking, and how tropical climate patterns impact extratropical climate variability. The impact of the stratosphere on S2S timescales is also explored, as well as S2S predictability and S2S global impacts. A focus on scientific literature provides the opportunity to advance skills in reading and interpreting journal articles. ### requirements text Graduate/professional standing ### credit offering ids
