It is used to disseminate notices regarding conferences and workshops, data avail- ability, calls for papers, positions available etc, as well as requests for information. An updated directory of email addresses for the subscribers to the list is distributed every month (usually on the 15th). To subscribe, mail to whichever of these addresses works for you: AJA+@OHSTMAIL.BITNET / aja+@osu.edu / johna@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu with the following information: Your name; your email address; your departmental & institutional affiliation; whether your email address is shared or personal; your area of interest or responsibility within climatology. 2. Weather-users (administered by scott@zorch.sf-bay.org) This list is for discussions of weather servers; sharing of code to automatically query weather servers; and announcements of availability (or lack thereof) and changes to weather servers. Initially, Jeff Masters (sdm@downwind.sprl.umich.edu) has agreed to send Weather Underground status notices to this list. To join or quit the list, email to weather-users-request@zorch.sf-bay.org; the list mail address is weather-users@zorch.sf-bay.org. 3. WX-TALK and other WX-lists WX-TALK, formerly STORM-L, is a mailing list for weather-related topics, special event notifications, job announcements, and administrative messages. This list, and other specialized weather-related lists, are run from the vmd.cso.uiuc.edu (UIUCVMD) machine at Urbana-Champaign, Illinois. WX-TALK is for discussions and questions; the others are intended to distribute information on particular topics, but you should not post mail to them. To join the list, send a message consisting of the single line SUB WX-TALK Your Name to whichever of these addresses works for you: LISTSERV@UIUCVMD / LISTSERV@UIUCVMD.BITNET / LISTSERV@VMD.CSO.UIUC.EDU or uiucuxc!vmd!listserv from uucp. Contributions should then go to WX-TALK@[working address] For more information, and a list of the other WX-lists on vmd.cso.uiuc.edu, use anonymous FTP to retrieve the file WX-TALK.DOC from vmd.cso.uiuc.edu in the directory "wx". 4. Wxsat (administered by Richard B. Emerson) Wxsat resends all NOAA/NESDIS bulletins on polar and geostationary weather satellites as well as occasional material on Meteosat. Bulletins with orbital predictions, spacecraft operation schedules, and related messages are copied from NOAA.SAT on SCIENCEnet and forwarded to all addresses on the list. The list is configured to accept and broadcast mail from subscribers to the list at large. Wxsat does not store or distribute imagery and is not primarily a "chat" list. Wxsat is oriented towards users with a daily operational need for TBUS and related bulletins. An archive of roughly 60 days' messages are available for retrieval via email messages to wxsat-archive@ssg.com. Send the message "help" in the text to the archive server for details on how to retrieve the current index and other files.
