Conference Theme

The Korean Meteorological Society (KMS), Chinese Meteorological Society (CMS), and Meteorological Society of Japan (MSJ) have been organizing joint conference on meteorology since 2005. After the sixth conference held in China in 2013, the three societies agreed to expand the conference and encourage participations from Asian countries, with a new conference title of the Asian Conference on Meteorology (ACM). The conference is held for every two years, hosted by the three societies taking turn. The first conference was held in Kyoto, Japan in October 2015. Here we would like to inform you that the second conference will be held during October 23-24, 2017 in Busan, Korea.

The main theme of the 2017 conference is on “Changes in Extreme Weather, Climate, and Environment in a Warmer World: Observation and Prediction”. The conference will host three sessions: Session 1: Climate System Interactions (Atmosphere-Ocean-Land-Cryosphere Interactions), Session 2: Improving Observation and Prediction of Weather and Climate Extremes, and Session 3: Regional Air Pollution and Environmental Changes.

The purpose of the joint conference is to enhance the development of atmospheric science, promote international academic exchange, organize regional activities in the field of meteorology, and create an academic exchange platform for meteorological societies of Asian countries.
