The annual American Geophysical Union (AGU) meeting will take place next week, December 12-16th, in Chicago, IL and online everywhere.
Every year, the AGU Fall Meeting convenes with over 25,000 attendees from 100+ counties to share scientific research and innovations. The Unified Forecast System (UFS) Community will host and/or participate in scientific workshops, Town Hall meetings, Scientific Sessions and Presentations at AGU to share most recent scientific and technological advances from the UFS community. We cordially invite you to stop by and exchange ideas with us.
The Earth Prediction Prediction Center (EPIC) will host a workshop and present at the NOAA booth:
- EPIC Workshop: Running the Unified Forecast System (UFS) Short-Range Weather Application in the Cloud, Saturday, 10 December 2022, 13:00 – 17:00 CST
