The 8th International Conference on Southern Hemisphere (SH) Meteorology and Oceanography will be held 24-28 April 2006 in Foz do Iguacu, Brazil. The meeting is organized around the broad theme "Understanding and Predicting Climate and Water Resources, their Variability and Change in the Southern Hemisphere. These meetings have been successful in promoting understanding of atmospheric and oceanic processes particular to SH and their linkages to the Tropics and the Northern Hemisphere. Particular attention will be given to:a) Monsoon systems and continental rainfall; fundamental processes; climatological, ecological biogeochemical, and hydrological functioning of the Monsoon regions;b) Role of the SH oceans in climate. Climate- ecosystem- biogeochemistry interactions in the oceans of the SH;c) Addressing gaps in SH observing systems;d) Climate and weather forecasts: The challenge of seasonal, interannual, and interdecadal predictions in the SH;e) Understanding long-term climate variations in the SH;f) Hydrological variability and modeling;g) Climatic and ecological impacts of land cover and land use changes;h) Climate and cryosphere of the Antarctic region;i) Climate change in the SH;j) Inter-ocean exchanges in the SH;k) Human influences on climate;l) Atmospheric chemistry in the SH.Intellectual Merit: With the advances in communication, the economic and social impacts of weather and climate information are global and the American Meteorological Society (AMS) and the scientific community are concerned with the social impacts and applications of weather and climate information. It is recognized that a global perspective is required for understanding regional variability, but each region has its unique geographical perspective. Broader Impacts: An international conference facilitates a fluid dialogue between scientists and users of weather and climate information. That is a crucial ingredient to advance global research in the atmospheric sciences and to promote the beneficial application of this research to the needs of society. The funds will support 7-10 students to attend the conference.

第八届南半球国际会议（SH）气象和海洋学将于2006年4月24日至28日在巴西的Foz Do Iguacu举行。 这次会议是围绕广泛主题的“理解和预测气候和水资源，南半球的可变性和变化的广泛主题。这些会议已成功地促进了对SH的大气和海洋过程的理解，及其与热带地区及其与北半球的联系及其与他们的联系。季风区域; b）SH海洋在气候中的作用。土地覆盖和土地利用的生态影响；天气和气候信息的应用和应用是一个全球视角，以了解区域变异性，但每个地区都有其独特的地理位置。学生参加会议。
