Thompson The 2026 Henry Darcy Medal is awarded to Sally E. Thompson for outstanding contributions to ecohydrology, particularly the co-evolution of vegetation and soils in natural landscapes, and the emerging patterns in response to water limitation. Sally E. Thompson’s research has pushed boundaries of our global understanding of cross-scale interactions between physical processes, vegetation and soils, and how this can lead to the emergence of novel patterns and spatial organisation in nature.

Her research deals with the design and characterization of new lime-based mortars to be used as rendering materials in restoration of historic buildings as well as in modern construction. One of her main research goals is the application of appropriate methods for the correct evaluation of the fresh and hardened properties of lime mortars.
