Documents to read prior to attending the AOS 2024:
Based on recommendations and priorities identified during the 2022 Summit, AOS 2024 will focus on the following thematic areas, each supported by a Working Group:
Much of the Summit is organized around the outcomes of prior events, and the pre-Summit discussions and activities of AOS Working Groups. Based on recommendations and priorities identified during the 2022 Summit, AOS 2024 will focus on four thematic areas, each supported by a Working Group.
More information about each working group, including a description, and working group leads and co-leads will be provided shortly.
All poster presenters are encouraged to submit a PDF of their poster to the AOS at aos@arcticobserving.com no later than March 27, 2024 to go on the AOS website.
