Updated on 5/18/2022
As AMS plans for the 20th Conference on Mountain Meteorology, we continue to monitor and keep track of the ongoing Covid situation. We are prioritizing the safety of presenters, attendees, program chairs, staff, and any volunteers who plan to attend in-person.
We are closely monitoring news and guidance from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and local health agencies regarding travel and events.
We recommend that you check back here on any recommendations and guidance for our in-person event. This Commitment to Care will be adjusted as needed due to any updates and news regarding the impact of COVID-19, CDC guidance or emergence of new variants.

It is our expectation that all in-person attendees at this meeting are up to date on their COVID-19 vaccinations as defined by the CDC.
More information on the vaccination policy will be available soon.

Masks will be required at this meeting.

Touch Points
Poster Sessions
We have increased the aisles of posters to allow for more social distancing. We have asked poster presenters to make their posters no larger than 4'x6' to allow more space between presenters.
Food and Beverage
During food functions or whenever you are eating or drinking, we ask that you remain stationary and put your mask back on when you are finished.
Symptoms and Health Survey
In-person attendees who feel ill or experience any symptoms of COVID-19 before or during the meeting should not enter the AMS Meeting until the symptoms have resolved.
Testing
While we do not require that participants submit a negative Covid-19 test result in order to attend this meeting, all travelers should follow recommendations set for by the CDC for domestic and international travel as well as check requirements set forth by their travel providers (planes, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation).
