Extractions: Calendar of Events In recent years, Canada-France relations have been cultivated by a series of visits by our respective heads of State and of Government. During Prime Minister Jospin's visit to Canada in December 1998, the two prime ministers signed an Action Program aimed at strengthening the bilateral relationship in a number of areas, notably in the field of environment. Canada and France also collaborate closely in multilateral organizations such as the UN, the G-8 Economic Summit, the OECD, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and La Francophonie. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on Environmental Cooperation was signed by the two Environment Ministers in February 1991. While scientific and technological cooperation occurred for many years under the Canada/France Joint Scientific Commission, the purpose of the MOU was to strengthen the dialogue in the field of environmental policy. Key areas of collaboration include the management of large rivers and lakes, aquatic contamination, meteorology, wastewater treatment and remote sensing applied to the environment. Collaborative activities have consisted of joint laboratory studies, exchange of scientists and technology transfer. In addition, the Environmental Technology Centre has entered into a number of cooperative programs with France dealing with Environmental Emergencies and the Microwave-Assisted Process Programs.

Extractions: A major precollege teacher enhancement initiative of the American Meteorological Society (AMS). Its main goal is the training of K-12 Weather Education Resource Teachers who will promote the teaching of science, mathematics, and technology using weather as a vehicle. A 13-week course is offered twice a year to selected participants. It focuses on the study of the atmospheric environment through the use of electronically transmitted weather data and learning materials combined with Study Guide readings and investigations. more>> Meteorology: Does Weather Happen Randomly? - Richard Levine, Tefft Middle School, Streamwood, IL Does weather happen randomly or are there patterns that can be recognized? If there are patterns, what are they and how can we use them? Scientific skills involved are: collecting, recording and analyzing data; thinking creatively and critically, and communicating results. Students use graphs and spreadsheets to do investigations on the relation between altitude and temperature, latitude and temperature, the direction weather moves, atmospheric readings, the relation between dewpoint temperature and actual air temperature as a storm approaches, and atmospheric readings as a line of storms approaches and departs a reporting station, predicting the weather.

Extractions: "Precision Approach" - An Initiative to Develop and Test an Accurate and Efficient Aviation Forecast System Leaders: Tom Hicks (ZFW) and Steve.Amburn (TSA) Description: This is one of the most ambitious, yet vital, initiatives to the aviation program enhancement effort. In the very near future, changing customer requirements (e.g, anticipated Traffic Management Unit Requirements Document) will make it necessary for both automation and collaboration among all organizational elements (the AWC, CWSUs, WFOs, and the Spaceflight Meteorology Group [SMG]) to play key roles in producing what can be termed "ramp-to-ramp" aviation weather forecasts: ramp-to-terminal-to-departure zone-to-center airspace-to-approach zone-to-terminal-to-ramp. The result of the automation and collaboration process will be to generate forecasts that are consistent, accurate, timely, and tailored to the specific needs of the various aviation customers. While automation will be critical to the success of this effort, it will not eliminate the need for the aviation forecaster. Indeed his/her role may become more important, but likely will need to be redefined.

A thorough understanding of their fundamentals and interrelationships is essential if a nation is to improve, or even maintain its position in today's globally competitive environment. Without this understanding, there is little potential for both informed governments, capable of offering reasonable legislative choices, and educated electorates, capable of understanding the choices and making the wise decisions necessary to ensure a productive and secure future. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY LFEM - STEP Outreach Programs LFEM - STEP are acronyms for the educational outreach programs Live from Earth and Mars (LFEM) Science, Technology, Education Partnerships (STEP) The purpose of these educational programs is to promote scientific literacy and collaboration among today's K-12 students - within the classroom and between classrooms worldwide. Scientific literacy and collaboration are necessary in order to create a safe, secure and prosperous human climate, whether on Earth or Mars.
