Submitters should indicate their eligibility for student awards when submitting their abstracts. Award recipients will be informed of the committee's decision by early February 2027.

Student Participation Support

The 19th Symposium on Aerosol–Cloud–Climate Interactions is awarding three (3) Student Participation Support awards of up to $195 each to allow student presenters to attend the AMS 107th Annual Meeting in Denver, CO 10-14 January 2027. The award should be used to offset travel related expenses (registration fees, transportation, lodging and meals only). It is open to undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students, who must submit a letter of recommendation from their advisor. In the application, students will be asked to provide information on their academic background, conference participation, funding needs, and any other financial support they receive. Awards are reimbursed after the conference upon submission of receipts, with registration fees optionally applied in advance. The support prioritizes students with financial need and those whose participation will benefit their research and professional development. Students must be enrolled at a college or university through the application deadline and the Annual Meeting and must be the lead author and presenter of their own, original work.
