Meteorologists study meteo- er... the atmosphere. There are other atmospherological (it's fun to make up words) researchers but the largest study of the atmosphere is done by meteorologists. Some predict the weather (and fail) whilst others study to better predict future weather. Also some physicists study the atmosphere to further random physical studies.

They study the atmosphere to predict the weather
Six months later on May 12, 1931, Wegener's body was found in Greenland, halfway between Eismitte and West camp, buried with great care. A pair of skis marked the grave site. At 50 years of age and a heavy smoker, Wegener's suspected cause of death was heart failure through overexertion. His body was reburied in the same spot by the team that found the burial site and marked with a large cross. After burying Wegener, Villumsen departed for the West camp, but was never seen again. It is estimated that the 23-year-old's body now lies buried under more than 100 metres (330 ft) of accumulated ice and snow.

he wanted to study science because his dad liked science
he studied physics, astronomy and meteorology at theFriedrich Wilhelms University (today Humboldt University), Berlin. In 1905, he earned his Ph.D. in astronomy
There are some strange noises coming from the attic.
Alfred Wegener studied the concept of Pangaea, the supercontinent that existed millions of years ago, by examining the fit of continents, the distribution of fossils, and rock formations across different continents. He proposed the theory of continental drift to explain how the continents had once been joined together and later drifted apart.
Because he discovered that similar fossils were being found in different countries, were some of those plants and animals couldn't grow or live there for creating the theory Pangaea.For example,Wegener found a fossil of a plant in South America which made perfect sense for it to grow in but, what wasn't logical was that he found the exact same fossil in Iceland were temperatures are to cold for vegetation.
Alfred o Coffin studied bioligical sciences
Alfred studied in South-East Asia and Africa
A meteorologist is a specialist in the study of the atmosphere and weather.
Alfred Wegener attended school at the Köllnische Gymnasium on Wallstrasse in Berlin (a fact which is memorialized on a plaque on this protected building, now a school of music), graduating as the best in his class. Afterward he studied Physics, meteorology and Astronomy in Berlin, Heidelberg and Innsbruck. From 1902 to 1903 during his studies he was an assistant at the Urania astronomical observatory. He obtained a doctorate in astronomy in 1905 based on a dissertation written under the supervision of Julius Bauschinger at Friedrich Wilhelms University (today Humboldt University), Berlin.
Generally not. Geologists study the rocks and sediments that make of Earth itself. They only study the atmosphere insofar as it interacts with rock and sediment. Climatologists and meteorologists are the main scientists who study the atmosphere.
