Janek Walk Janek is a postdoc at the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg with a research focus on the processes and evolution of dryland geomorphology and soils – largely based on field studies in North Chile, Northwest Namibia and Central Asia. Outside of drylands, he further works on the human impact on fluvial systems in Central Europe.

Home / Awards & medals / Christiaan Huygens Medal / 2015 / Kristine M. Larson
Larson for her exceptionally innovative work to improve algorithms for high precision GPS data analysis. Kristine M. Larson has developed exceptionally innovative work with GPS instrumentation in the past decade. GPS is best known in geophysics for its application in measuring small deformations caused by plate motions. In the first decade of Larson’s career she focused on improving algorithms for high precision GPS data analysis and applying this relatively new technique to a variety of tectonic and timing problems.

He contributed in major ways to the study of the thermal budget of Titan combining both DISR and CIRS measurements, as well as in many of the CIRS papers on the composition of Titan’s atmosphere. Bézard did not miss the ‘exoplanet revolution’. As early as 2000, he built with two successive PhD students one of the first time radiative-equilibrium models of hot Jupiters.
