2018 IN REVIEW:
2018 President,
IN REVIEW Andrew Marshall
A Message from AMOS
Dear AMOS Members,
It's been a thoroughly enjoyable first year as AMOS President!
Over the last 12 months we have held many regional and national
events with our aim to help improve atmospheric, oceanographic and
climate science outreach across Australia. I present a summary of these
below.
I wish to thank everyone involved in putting together our
successful activities programme for 2018. AMOS relies on people to
volunteer their time and services, and I am fortunate to work alongside
an energetic group of people dedicated to supporting and promoting
the AMOS sciences.
The year ahead promises to be an exciting one as we look to the
AMOS-ICTMO Darwin conference in June. I look forward to seeing you
there!
Andrew Marshall, January 2019
