Bioclimatology
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-003917
The scientific study of the interactions between living organisms and their atmospheric environment, focusing on how climate influences biological processes and how biological systems, in turn, affect climate. This field examines the impact of meteorological factors like temperature, humidity, radiation, and wind on human health, animal behavior, and plant growth. It also investigates phenomena such as phenology and the distribution of species in relation to climate zones.
