What do we study?
Research activity and expertise are major strengths of Hampton University's Department of Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences and its associated Center for Atmospheric Sciences (CAS). Atmospheric science is the study of the physics, chemistry, and dynamics of gases, clouds, and aerosols that surround the planetary bodies of the solar system. At HU, research is extended beyond the usual bounds of the atmosphere to include the interplanetary medium and processes of "space weather" affecting Earth and other planets. There are opportunities for student involvement in cutting-edge research.How do I get involved?

Featured Research Faculty:
Robert P. LoughmanDr. Loughman received his Bachelor of Science degree from the College of William and Mary in 1993 (Physics major, Mathematics minor). He then attended the University of Arizona, receiving M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Atmospheric Science in 1995 and 1998, respectively. After five years as a post-doctoral Research Associate at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, he […]
