Home / Awards & medals / John Dalton Medal / 2022 / Martha C. Anderson
Her approach uses physics-based formulations that utilize time-changes in surface temperature to detect anomalies in actual-to-potential evapotranspiration, thus allowing their implementation in operational drought monitoring initiatives. Anderson completed her doctoral work in observational astrophysics but shortly after embarked into a new area of research that is at the interface of soil-plant-atmosphere interactions and remote sensing of land-surface processes.

If, much later, thousands of years later in fact, a scientist came across this glass with its frozen water and tapped into the bubbles, they would find old air from your kitchen trapped inside! Tapping into air trapped in ice sheets from hundreds of thousands of years ago is one of the key ways that scientists can understand what the Earth’s atmosphere was like back then.

I also intend to run a short course where, using some of the principles of stylised illustration, I will prove to anyone interested in joining that they can, in fact, draw.” EGU General Assembly participants will be able to see images of the artwork produced by artists via social media (using the hashtag #EGUart ), on the EGU GeoLog blog and live at the conference centre.

As a result of this successful work, a significant step forward has been made in the effectiveness with which Taiwan can monitor its major mass-wasting activities and act in time to mitigate their damage. This is more impressive than the yet also impressive number of papers Chao has published in his brief professional career.

This session features diverse tidal research, including on the accuracy of present-day coastal, regional and global tide models, tidal dissipation, and the role of tides in geophysics. The session is also intended to mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Liverpool Tidal Institute.
Home / Awards & medals / Vilhelm Bjerknes Medal / 2024 / Lucy Carpenter
She is a (co-)author of seminal articles on halogen chemistry in the marine boundary layer, in particular involving reactive iodine and bromine compounds and their role in oxidation processes and ozone photochemistry. These compounds also play an important role in new particle formation.
