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:
William B. MooreDr. William B. Moore is a Planetary Scientist, Professor in the Atmospheric and Planetary Science Department at Hampton University and the Hampton University Professor in Residence at the National Institute of Aerospace. He is interested in the physical processes that link the interior evolution of planetary bodies with their surfaces, atmospheres and dynamics, and particularly […]
