William F. McDonough 2012 Robert Wilhelm Bunsen Medal The 2012 Robert Wilhelm Bunsen Medal is awarded to William F. McDonough for his outstanding contribution to our understanding of the geochemical composition and evolution of the solid Earth. His ground-breaking research in defining the major and trace element composition of primitive mantle and of modern mantle reservoirs has become a cornerstone of geochemical investigation of the Earth’s interior and will form the basis for further investigations by generations of geochemists.

Mark S. Ghiorso 2010 Robert Wilhelm Bunsen Medal The 2010 Robert Wilhelm Bunsen Medal is awarded to Mark S. Ghiorso for his outstanding contribution in the field of multiphase, multi-component silicate melt thermodynamics. Ghiorso substantially advanced knowledge and capabilities in that field by developing, updating and releasing computational resources representing the state-of-the-art during last twenty years. His work continues to represent a reference and inspiration for generations of scientists who make daily use of Mark’s codes to decipher their observations, test their hypotheses or develop new ones.
