Home / Awards & medals / Plinius Medal / 2020 / Claire J. Horwell
This was recently recognised with the creation of the GeoHealth Section at the American Geophysical Union, of which she is the founding leader and president. Horwell has generated novel research pathways that answer questions about the toxicity of respirable volcanic ash and translate these into state-of-the art in exposure assessments.
Home / Profile / Gina Pereira Correia
She holds a Msc in Environmental Education (2006) and a PhD in Geology (specialization in History and Methodology of Geological Sciences) (2014), at the University of Coimbra.
Home / Awards & medals / Robert Wilhelm Bunsen Medal / 2024 / Kei Hirose
His work has had a profound impact on our understanding of the nature of observed seismic discontinuities in the mantle, and of the composition and behaviour of the Earth’s core: there is no important topic in deep Earth geophysics that he hasn’t advanced through experimental work combined with profound insights for its implications.

Within that project, John Imbrie was a member of the team that vindicated the work of Milutin Milankovic by demonstrating that changes in the geometry of the Earth-Sun system did indeed pace the glacial cycles of the Pleistocene.

Fabio is a post-doc researcher at the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences (DISAT) at the University of Milano-Bicocca who co-founded the outreach organisation GeoSocial Science & Media . During the EGU General assembly, Fabio and members of the EGU Outreach Committee visited the International School in Vienna to tell them more about Fabio’s fabulous work.

Furthermore, he is President of the ‘European Centre on Geomorphological Hazards’ (CERG), one of the 22 research and training centres of the EUR-OPA Natural Hazards Network of the Council of Europe. In addition, he is a member of the editorial board of the International Journals ‘Engineering Geology’, ‘Landslides’, and ‘Géomorphologie: Relief, Processus, Environnement’.
Home / Awards & medals / Arne Richter Awards for Outstanding Early Career Scientists / 2021 / Carolyn J. Boulton
Particularly noteworthy is Boulton’s assiduous documentation of the microstructures developed in the experimental samples and her comparison of these to natural examples documented during extensive related field studies. Boulton was a key member of the Alpine Fault – Deep Fault Drilling Project (DFDP) Science Team in both 2011 and 2014.
Home / Jobs / 2 PhD positions on upscaling transport processes in partially-saturated porous media
These positions are funded by the ERC Starting Grant project Uplift. The overarching goal of Uplift is to develop upscaled models for transport, mixing, and reaction in the vadose zone, grounded in a robust understanding of pore-scale dynamics. The vadose zone, which connects the land surface to groundwater, plays a key role in controlling the fate of nutrients and contaminants.
