Please note the 34th Conference on Hurricanes and Tropical Meteorology virtual platform was shared with the 13th Fire and Forest Meteorology Virtual Symposium, taking place the same week in May. All registered attendees had full access to the program, materials, and live presentations for both meetings.
The AMS Committee on Tropical Meteorology and Tropical Cyclones serves as an authority on tropical meteorology and tropical cyclones for the Society and is the communication channel for the Society with the national and international organizations for tropical meteorological and related activities. The general functions of the committee are to stimulate research activities in problems of the tropical atmosphere and its relationships to other parts of the atmosphere-ocean-earth system represented by other committees, to encourage the exchange of ideas and information, and to promote the application of acquired knowledge to operational problems related to the Tropics. The 34th Conference on Hurricanes and Tropical Meteorology occurred virtually and included a number of topics, which can be viewed here.
