Meteorology includes atmospheric chemistry and atmospheric physics with a major focus on Weather Forecasting . Climatology is the study of atmospheric changes (both long and short-term) that define average climates and their change over time, due to both Natural Climate Variability and Anthropogenic Climate Variability or Global Warming .

Atmospheric science has been extended to the field of Planetary Science and the study of the atmospheres of the Planet s of the Solar System .
