The 99th edition of the Annual Meeting of the American Meteorological Society takes place January 6–10, 2019, in Phoenix, Arizona. Institute scientists and staff are involved with more than two dozen sessions and posters at AMS 2019, and several will be attending in person to lead sessions, give talks, and present posters.
See a full list of our activities below. We hope to see you in Phoenix!
NOTE: The times of some presentations have been changed as a result of Federal employees not being able to attend the meeting. Times for two sessions listed here have been updated (shown in bold), but please be sure to check the AMS web links or the meeting app to confirm the times for any sessions you plan to attend.
