Biometeorology is the study of how weather and climate affect living organisms. It is an interdisciplinary field that combines biology, meteorology, and environmental science. Synonyms for biometeorology include bioclimatology, eco-climatology, ecological meteorology, and environmental physiology. Bioclimatology focuses on how changes in climate affect ecosystems, while eco-climatology studies how living organisms interact with their environment. Ecological meteorology is concerned with how weather patterns and atmospheric conditions affect habitats and populations. Environmental physiology explores how organisms adapt to changing environmental conditions. Each of these terms reflects a slightly different perspective on the same basic idea - the complex interactions between living organisms and their environment, including the weather and climate.
