As part of the 95th Annual Meeting of the American Meteorological Society (AMS) to be held <span><span>4-8 January 2015 in Phoenix, AZ</span></span>,
there will be a joint program focusing on current, future, and
conceptual satellite systems and their operational and research
applications. A major goal of this program is to illustrate the
cutting-edge utility of satellite data for predicting and analyzing
meteorology, oceanography, and climate variables and their synthesis
into environmental applications. The 3rd Symposium on the Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation will be one of the components of the joint program. <br></div>

success of the Program will depend on student involvement. Therefore,
the Joint Program will host a reception to support interaction between
students and more senior participants. Additionally, a $200 award will
be given to the best poster and best oral presentations in each of the
three Joint Program conferences, for a total of six presentation awards.
Students that submit abstracts to the 20th Conference on Satellite
Meteorology can also compete for two $550 awards to help cover travel
expenses.</div>
