We were saddened to learn of the passing of Dr. John Lazier on March 9, 2021. John was one of the original employees hired in 1960 during the establishment of the Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO), which opened in October 1962.

Thank you, CMOS Bulletin readers, for welcoming me as the new editor of the Bulletin! As I’m sitting at my home in Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal watching the snow fall, I’m able to reflect on how, in a year that been full of chaos, the topics that we work on—weather, climatology, hydrology, oceans—continue to be more important than ever.
The Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society (CMOS), the premier Society for atmospheric and oceanographic sciences in Canada, offers undergraduate and graduate scholarships to students in atmospheric sciences, meteorology, climate, oceanography and related fields (e.g., mathematics, hydrology, limnology).
Dear CMOS member or past Congress participant,
The Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society (CMOS) 55th Congress will be held 31 May to 11 June, 2021, hosted by the Vancouver Island Centre. The Congress will be held using a virtual (on-line) format, extending over a longer period, 9-10 days, with reduced hours each day to accommodate multiple time zones.
