The CMOS Bulletin SCMO is published six times per year, in both electronic and
hard copy versions. The task of publishing each issue takes approximately 40
hours, every second month.
CMOS/SCMO Council is open to considering proposals from a prospective Editor

bulletin to one that will lend itself to web and social media while maintaining
the current information content, and remaining attractive to CMOS/SCMO
membership.
Editorial tasks include soliciting articles, reviewing the articles for
technical content, assembling and formatting the issue, arranging for
translation when required, sending issue file to printer.
The Editor works independently, but with support from CMOS/SCMO office staff
and the CMOS /SCMO Director of Publication.
Required Competencies:
• A familiarity with scientific publishing.
• General knowledge of meteorology and/or climatology and/or oceanography.
• Competent user of an electronic word processor such as MS Word or Apple Pages
or other publication software.
