2020 AMS Annual Meeting

20th Conference on Aviation, Range, and Aerospace Meteorology

Call for Papers

The focus of the 20^th Aviation, Range and Aerospace Meteorology (ARAM) Conference is aligned with the general theme of the 100^th AMS Annual Meeting, “The AMS Past, Present, and Future: Linking Information to Knowledge to Society (LINKS).” The ARAM Conference will spotlight key historical contributions to aviation, range, and aerospace meteorology research and development, along with their role in advancing applications across varied operational domains and interests. The ARAM conference will also consider how its meteorological domains may evolve in the future, in anticipation of developing applications and operational needs. Much of this evolution will leverage the continued scientific advancements being made in aviation, range and aerospace meteorology, which will be an ongoing focus of this conference.

Student Award Opportunities

The Aviation, Range, and Aerospace Meteorology (ARAM) committee of the American Meteorological Society (AMS) is proud to award a Best Student Presentation prize at the 20th Conference on Aviation, Range, and Aerospace Meteorology.  This award recognizes outstanding student contributions based on the student's oral or poster presentation.

Contenders for the award must satisfy the following requirements:

 * Be enrolled at a university (either at undergraduate or graduate level) at the time of the presentation
 * Personally make the presentation of the student's own work

Students who wish to be considered for this prize should indicate that when submitting the abstract.  Previous winners of this prize are no longer eligible.
