This award provides core support to the Board of Atmospheric Sciences and Climate (BASC) to aid the science community and advise federal agencies on atmospheric sciences and climate research issues. The BASC strives to advance understanding of atmospheric science, meteorology, and climate; foster application of this knowledge to benefit the public; help ensure that U.S. research programs are responsive to scientific opportunities and the needs of the Nation; and help make scientific information more useful in government planning and decision-making. Thus this activity has substantial broader impacts.The BASC is part of the National Academies, chartered by Congress in 1863 to provide independent science advice to government. The BASC uses volunteer experts to assist in the design of research studies and workshops and to review and assess findings and assess priorities. The BASC also facilitates US involvement in international research programs such as World Climate Research Program, Climate Variability and Predictability Program. For 2012-2015, it will continue to plan activities where objective, independent discussion and analysis are needed. Areas include severe weather, scientific understanding of climate change, observational systems, climate modeling and additional topics as requested. The BASC will seek opportunities to use its role as a neutral, independent body to encourage open discussion of issues.

该奖项为大气科学和气候委员会（BASC）提供了核心支持，以帮助科学界，并就大气科学和气候研究问题提供建议。 BASC致力于提高对大气科学，气象和气候的理解。促进这种知识的应用以使公众受益；有助于确保美国研究计划能够响应科学机会和国家的需求；并帮助使科学信息在政府计划和决策中更有用。因此，这项活动具有更广泛的影响。BASC是美国国家学院的一部分，由国会于1863年宪章，以向政府提供独立的科学建议。 BASC使用志愿专家来协助设计研究和讲习班的设计，并评估和评估发现和评估优先级。 BASC还促进了我们参与国际研究计划，例如世界气候研究计划，气候变异性和可预测性计划。对于2012 - 2015年，它将继续计划活动，需要客观，独立的讨论和分析。区域包括恶劣的天气，对气候变化的科学理解，观察系统，气候建模和根据要求的其他主题。 BASC将寻求机会将其角色作为中立，独立的机构，以鼓励对问题进行公开讨论。
