Organizers invite registration and applications for stipends for the 13th Workshop on Antarctic Meteorology and Climate. This workshop will convene 16-19 July 2018 in Madison, Wisconsin.

This workshop will bring together those with research and operational/logistical interests in Antarctic meteorology, forecasting, and related disciplines. The annual activities and status of the Antarctic Meteorological Research Center, Automatic Weather Station, and Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System efforts will be addressed, and feedback and results from the user communities will be solicited. This workshop will also be a forum for current results and ideas in Antarctic meteorology, numerical weather prediction, and weather forecasting. There will be discussions on the relationships among international efforts and Antarctic forecasting, logistical support, and science.

Papers and posters on these topics are welcome.

Short abstract submission deadline: 11 June 2018.

Stipend support for students and early career scientists are being provided by the International Association of Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences via Madison College. Support will be five stipend awards of approximately $300. Preference will be given to under-represented groups and applicants from countries with developing Antarctic programs.

To apply for a stipend, applicants must submit a one-page curriculum vitae, a brief (one page) statement of the benefit of attendance and how the applicant will contribute to the workshop, and the applicant's budget.
