Seeking new members for the Polar committee

The AMS Committee on Polar Meteorology and Oceanography is seeking 3 new committee members to start service in January 2023. 

The nomination form is now closed.

Anyone should feel free to nominate any person they feel would be a good addition to this committee. You may nominate more than one person. Description of committee member duties can be found here. Regular members serve 3 year terms; student members serve 2 year terms. Terms are renewable if desired by the committee member.

After the application closes, the current AMS Polar committee will review nominations and select which nominees to ask to serve on the committee. Nominees contacted may be decided based on factors such as: multiple nominations of the same individual, committee diversity (e.g. scientific expertise, institution, career stage, gender, ...), etc. The committee will create a ranked list of nominees and try to reach unanimous consensus on the nominees we invite to join the committee.
