Biometeorology studies how atmospheric conditions affect living organisms - the prefix 'bio-' refers to life and 'meteorology' refers to atmospheric conditions. It examines relationships between weather/climate and biological systems. Biology is the general study of life, biotechnology uses organisms for products, and bryology studies mosses (bryophytes).
