85th AMS Annual Meeting
Building the Earth Information System

The AMS Annual Meeting will be held January 9-13, 2005, at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego. This year’s AMS Annual Meeting is organized around the broad theme of "Building the Earth Information System" and the role that science can play in decision-making for society. Because one-third or more of the economy being sensitive to weather and climate variability and changes, decisions involving resource management, economic development, hazard response, and policy all require the development of observing systems, science knowledge, and products that provide information across multiple spatial and temporal scales in the atmospheric and related sciences.
