AMS 32nd Conference on Agricultural and Forest Meteorology
The abstract submission deadline of AMS 32nd Conference on Agricultural and Forest Meteorology is February 8. The Conference will be held in Salt Lake City, Utah, 20 – 24 June 2016, joint with 22nd Symposium on Boundary Layers and Turbulence, the Third Conference on Biogeosciences, and a special session for Bill Massman.

Campbell Scientific is located in Logan, Utah, about 80 miles north of Salt Lake City (1.5 hour drive). Campbell promised to support a field trip for conference attendees to visit and see the manufacturing processes and quality, calibration, and testing. We are also planning to have some near-by beautiful sight-seeing (BBQ) with this field trip. A complete plan and schedule must be after the deadline of abstract submission!
