All presenters must also register for the meeting.

The 12th Symposium on High Performance Computing for Weather, Water, and Climate is sponsored by the American Meteorological Society and organized by the AMS Board on Environmental Information Processing Technologies.

The American Meteorological Society High Performance Computing Symposium for Weather, Water, and Climate is excited to announce it will hold its 12th meeting as a part of the 106th AMS Annual Meeting to be held in Houston, TX January 25-29, 2026. This year’s symposium looks to host an array of sessions over both new and traditional HPC topics to continue to facilitate a strongly connected community of HPC users, administrators, maintainers, software library and application developers, and system and hardware vendors across the fields of weather, water, and climate. Proposed session topics include new and emerging hardware and algorithms, numerical weather prediction, artificial intelligence, GPU porting and development, urban and convective modeling, cloud-based HPC, industry trends and innovations, ecological forecasting, community modeling, and more. Of these topics, several joint sessions with relevant sister conferences are proposed to establish or maintain ties with the interdisciplinary needs for HPC across the atmospheric, oceanic, and hydrological sciences. We highly encourage those looking to submit abstracts to any of the proposed sessions to please review the topics, their descriptions, and whether or not they are proposed as joint sessions with relevant conferences to help ensure the best audience for your submission. Full proposed session topics and their descriptions are listed here.
