The American Geophysical Union's Fall Meeting 2017 takes place in New Orleans, Louisiana, US, and is the largest Earth and Space Science Meeting in the world.

There are more than 20,000 oral and poster presentations from scientists around the world. The atmospheric and biogeosciences have always been a big component of the conference. The meeting provides an excellent podium to learn about science developments and interact with colleagues from around the world. Whilst CHE will not be formally presented this time, Richard Engelen (ECMWF) and other CHE Consortium members will interact with many scientists on relevant topics.
