The organizers of the 5th Symposium on Prediction of the Madden-Julian Oscillation are pleased to offer partial travel grants for two students ($500 each). They will also provide cash awards for outstanding student oral ($200 first place) and poster ($200 first place) presentations within the MJO Symposium. Students who wish to be considered for this prize must be the first author, presenting their own work, and need to indicate their competition entry when submitting their abstract. These awards will be based on originality of research and quality of presentation delivery. Students who would like to be considered for partial travel support should also indicate so when submitting their abstract and may be asked to submit justification for these need-based funds.
