Starting with the EMS Annual Meeting and ECAC 2006, short conference papers are published in the Open Access Journal Advances in Science and Research, The Open Access Proceedings of the European Meteorological Society (ASR) (https://www.advances-in-science-and-research.net/), published by Copernicus.

ASR publishes original contributions on (a) advances in understanding weather and climate processes and (b) the development of operational systems and applications of meteorology, climatology, and related disciplines. This also includes new challenges and the role of communication, education and training, and engagement with society for the profession and its practices. ASR is an open-access journal for contributions presented at the annual meetings of the EMS and other related events. All manuscripts undergo peer review with at least two independent referees. The peer review is organized by the session conveners of the respective conference, who act as the guest editors for the proceedings. Advances in Science and Research performs a single-blind peer review. However, it is up to the referees to reveal their identity.

All papers of this volume underwent the regular peer-review process of Adances in Science and Research handled by guest editors designated by the managing editor.
