American Meteorological Society
The American Meteorological Society (AMS) is a scientific society that promotes the development and dissemination of information and education on the atmospheric and related oceanic and hydrologic sciences and the advancement of their professional applications.〔(About the AMS )〕
== Background ==
Founded in 1919, the American Meteorological Society has a membership of more than 13,000 professionals, professors, students, and weather enthusiasts. Some members have attained the designation Certified Consulting Meteorologist (CCM),〔(Directory of Certified Consulting Meteorologists )〕 many of whom have expertise in the applied meteorology discipline of atmospheric dispersion modeling. To the general public, however, the AMS is best known for its "Seal of Approval" to television and radio meteorologists.〔(History of the AMS )〕
The AMS publishes nine atmospheric and related oceanic and hydrologic journals (in print and online), issues position statements on scientific topics that fall within the scope of their expertise, sponsors more than twelve conferences annually, and offers numerous programs and services. There is also an extensive network of local and student chapters, some of which organize regional AMS conferences.
The AMS headquarters is located at 45 Beacon Street off the Boston Common in Boston, Massachusetts. The headquarters building was built by the famous Boston architect Charles Bulfinch as the third Harrison Gray Otis House in 1806 and was purchased and renovated by the AMS in 1958, with staff moving into the building in 1960. In 2012, the AMS purchased the building next door at 44 Beacon Street, also designed by Bulfinch. The AMS also maintains an office in Washington, D.C. at 1200 New York Avenue NW.〔(History of the House at 45 Beacon Street )〕
