The American Meteorological Society (AMS) will bring to the United States scientists who are leaders in their national meteorological societies in developing countries for the first-ever International Forum of Meteorological Societies (IFMS). In this Forum in these scientists will interact with their colleagues from developed countries to exchange information, share experience and knowledge that could identify challenges and opportunities for meteorological and related oceanographic research, not only within their countries, but on both regional and global scales as well. Most communications between meteorological societies have occurred to date on a bilateral basis.The discussions and interactions at the Forum will address at least two scientific issues of a high priority -- global climate change and severe natural weather hazards. The Forum will consider ways in which professional meteorological societies can assist in identifying issues that are likely to arise from global climate change and severe natural weather hazards and will consider ways to address these issues. The latter effort will be directed at improvement of education and communications in the meteorological sciences; and of outreach programs to inform and educate decision-makers, professionals, and the general public.

美国气象学会（AMS）将邀请发展中国家国家气象学会的领导者科学家来到美国，参加首届国际气象学会论坛（IFMS）。 在这次论坛上，这些科学家将与发达国家的同行交流信息，分享经验和知识，以便不仅在其国内，而且在区域和全球范围内确定气象和相关海洋学研究的挑战和机遇。 迄今为止，气象学会之间的大多数交流都是在双边基础上进行的，论坛上的讨论和互动将涉及至少两个高度优先的科学问题-全球气候变化和严重自然天气灾害。 论坛将审议专业气象学会如何协助查明全球气候变化和严重自然天气灾害可能引起的问题，并将审议解决这些问题的办法。 后一项工作将致力于改善气象科学方面的教育和交流，以及向决策者、专业人员和公众提供信息和教育的外联方案。
