      I particularly love atmospheric physics – learning about how the atmosphere works and our weather and climate. The atmosphere is basically a fluid in terms of the physics that describes it, and this is the same physics that describes the oceans or even how water moves in a pipe! I find that fascinating.

      I also love how varied physics can be, and how much creative thinking you can do when you are studying or working in an area of Physics.
