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.

该奖项为大气科学与气候委员会（BASC）提供核心支持，以帮助科学界并就大气科学和气候研究问题向联邦机构提供建议。BASC致力于推进对大气科学、气象学和气候的理解；促进这些知识的应用，以造福公众；帮助确保美国的研究项目对科学机遇和国家需求作出反应；并帮助使科学信息在政府规划和决策中更有用。因此，这项活动具有相当广泛的影响。BASC是国家科学院的一部分，1863年由国会授权，为政府提供独立的科学建议。BASC使用志愿专家协助设计研究和研讨会，并审查和评估研究结果和评估优先事项。BASC还促进美国参与国际研究项目，如世界气候研究项目、气候变率和可预测性项目。2012-2015年，它将继续规划需要客观、独立讨论和分析的活动。领域包括恶劣天气、对气候变化的科学认识、观测系统、气候模拟和其他要求的主题。BASC将寻求机会利用其中立、独立机构的角色，鼓励对问题进行公开讨论。
