New Meeting Procedures for Authors (for meetings administered by AMS)
For meetings that have preprint or extended abstracts volumes, only reviewer's abstracts will be required; abstracts will not be published in the BULLETIN.
For meetings that do not have preprint or extended abstracts volumes, both reviewer's abstracts and short abstracts (100 words) for inclusion in an abstract booklet to be distributed at the meeting will be required.
Because of time constraints and escalating costs, AMS will no longer accommodate changes in authors' names, affiliations, paper titles, and/or abstracts once the program has been received at AMS from the program chairman.
Programs are now set by computer. Mathematical/chemical equations and/or symbols may not be used in titles and short abstracts. Please substitute words, phrases, or sentences for mathematical and chemical expressions.
Authors are requested to comply with the above procedures.

It is the successor of SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON those in Munich (1968), Ottawa (1972), and Cambridge (1977). AEROBIOLOGY, AUGUST 4-6, 1982, SEATTLE, WASH. The purpose of this conference is to cut across discipline lines and bring together scientists and engineers whose Aerobiology is a scientific discipline focused on the research involves the physical or chemical properties of ice. transport of airborne organisms in both outdoor and indoor Other topics to be presented are fundamental studies of any environments. Represented under the umbrella of of the phases of ice, either experimental or theoretical, and aerobiology are plant, human, and animal pathology; investigations which depend, in part, on the properties of ice entomology; allergology; air pollution effects; palynology, such as meteorology and atmospheric electricity, glaciology, phytogeography, nutrient cycling, and meteorology.

Edited by
G. Brant Foote and Charles A. Knight
A Volume Dedicated to Frank Henry Ludlam Photograph by Charles Semmer, NCAR
The contributions to this volume, both contributed papers and responses, had their origin in a symposium, "Hail and Its Suppression," held in Estes Park, Colorado, in September 1975, by the National Center for Atmospheric Research.
The monograph presents the state of knowledge of hailstorms and hail suppression. The subject matter ranges from storm mechanisms and numerical modeling, through hail climatology and hail prediction, to the economic aspects of hail and hail suppression, the current hail suppression concepts, and methods of evaluating seeding programs. The approach is interdisciplinary, and the subject often controversial, especially as regards hail suppression.
