| Introduction
The AMS Board on Societal Impacts focuses on the principle of science in the service of society by considering weather and climate effects on lives, health and well-being, property, and the economy for all people, animals, and the Earth.
Vision: A weather and climate enterprise where social science is integrated into research and practice.
The Board's Mission is to:
" Advise and serve the AMS in matters related to societal impacts of weather and climate;
" Raise awareness, encourage, and support efforts relating to societal impacts of weather and climate within AMS and the broader weather and climate enterprise;
" Develop and strengthen relationships among scientists, educators, policymakers, and decision-makers from a variety of backgrounds including, but not limited to, agriculture, anthropology, communications, geography, decision science, economics, political science, psychology, public health, and sociology; and
" Support the integration of social science research methods into meteorological research and practice.
The Board Will Achieve Its Mission By:
" Organizing and participating in AMS-sponsored and co-sponsored conferences, symposia, workshops, and sessions to train interdisciplinarians and to facilitate understanding, stimulate work, and clarify issues related to societal impacts;
" Interacting with AMS committees, professional societies within and outside meteorology, and national and international agencies regarding societal impacts;
" Providing advice, information, and policy statements to AMS on matters concerning societal impacts; and
" Encouraging the publication of articles related to societal impacts in scholarly journals, including AMS journals.
The Board is also responsible for nominating deserving individuals for AMS Awards and Fellows.
