TV’s Somara Theodore teaches AOSC's first broadcast meteorology class. Students led the effort to create this course. A couple of years ago, Monique Robinson '18 created UMD Weather Talks, a student organization of broadcast meteorologist hopefuls that posts reports on YouTube, and contacted Theodore to get advice. Last spring, they asked her about teaching at Maryland. By the fall semester, the course was a reality.

A Capital News Service story highlights the work of the Regional Atmospheric Measurement Modeling and Prediction Program or RAMMPP. Comprised of 30 researchers and students, RAMMPP has helped the Maryland Department of the Environment improve regional air quality since 1999 by tracking how the ingredients for smog can originate from upwind states.
