This award will support the 2-3 day assembly of students and professionals to celebrate the achievements of atmospheric scientist from traditionally underrepresented groups (primarily Hispanic Native and African Americans) in the atmospheric sciences during the 20th Century. This conference will be held at Howard University (in Washington, DC) during the week of March 19th, 2000. The conference has components that include: (1) a historical perspective of traditionally underrepresented groups in the atmospheric sciences. (2) A plenary session devoted to several outstanding atmospheric scientists/meteorologists who served as pioneers or as current role models. (3) Panel sessions addressing important themes. (4) A short but special afternoon session devoted to undergraduate and graduate students called "Free zone ". (5) A poster session with contributions from students and professionals. (6) A career fair with vendors from industry and professional schools for graduate students or professionals in the field of atmospheric sciences. (7) A banquet with a short awards ceremony will close out the workshop. This workshop will be announced in EOS, BAMS, on the Howard Web site and announcements will be sent to the meteorology departments We expect that this workshop will produce a volume summarizing the important contributions of the workshop that will be distributed to each participant, interested administrators and mangers at government labs, private industry and the university setting.

该奖项将支持为期2-3天的学生和专业人士大会，以庆祝大气科学家在20世纪世纪在大气科学方面的成就，这些科学家来自传统上代表性不足的群体（主要是西班牙裔土著人和非洲裔美国人）。这次会议将于2000年3月19日在霍华德大学（位于华盛顿）举行。会议的组成部分包括：（1）传统上代表性不足的群体在大气科学的历史观点。(2)一次全体会议，专门讨论几位杰出的大气科学家/气象学家，他们是先驱者或目前的榜样。(3)讨论重要主题的小组会议。(4)一个简短但特别的下午会议，专门为本科生和研究生称为“自由区”。 (5)一个海报会议与学生和专业人士的贡献。(6)与工业和专业学校的供应商一起为大气科学领域的研究生或专业人员举办的招聘会。(7)一个简短的颁奖仪式的宴会将结束研讨会。本次研讨会将在EOS宣布，BAMS，在霍华德网站和公告将被发送到气象部门，我们预计，本次研讨会将产生一个卷总结研讨会的重要贡献，将分发给每个参与者，感兴趣的管理人员和管理人员在政府实验室，私营企业和大学设置。
