Home / Awards & medals / Christiaan Huygens Medal / 2026 / Vijay Prasad Dimri
His pioneering work in signal processing and fractals in geosciences has paved the way for new methods of acquiring geopotential field data, enabling more accurate detection of geophysical anomalies. He has proposed innovative data processing techniques to improve the delineation of the geophysical anomalies, which are summarised in his numerous books, such as 'Deconvolution and Inverse Theory'.
Home / Awards & medals / Petrus Peregrinus Medal / 2010 / Jean Pierre Valet
These contributions have significantly and continuously aided in improving our understanding of the geomagnetic field and the underlying behaviour of the geodynamo. Jean-Pierre Valet started his research career as a Ph.D. student at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique in the palaeomagnetic laboratory of the Centre des Faibles Radioactivités under the supervision of Carlo Laj.

The Peer Support programme, formerly called the mentoring scheme, helps experienced attendees of the General Assembly to support novice attendees in getting the most out of their experience during the week of the meeting. Submit your application by 31 March 2026.
Home / Awards & medals / Marie Tharp Medal
This medal, initially established in recognition of the scientific achievements of Stephan Mueller in 1997, was renamed in honour of Marie Tharp in 2025, while both medals co-existed between 2022 and 2025. It is awarded to scientists in recognition of their outstanding contributions to tectonics and structural geology.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2015 / Michael Stoelzle
During his PhD thesis he focused on catchment storage analysis and the climate sensitivity of catchments in order to improve low flow and streamflow drought prediction. His EGU 2015 poster “Improved baseflow characterization in mountainous catchments” presents a novel baseflow separation method to identify multiple delayed streamflow contributions in order to characterize the origins of these contributions by assessing seasonality and constancy of the streamflow regimes.
Home / News / EGU news / Editorial malpractice in two EGU journals (SOIL and SE) detected for one editor, others cleared
In mid-February, a few days after EGU and Copernicus announced to the community they had detected and handled this isolated case of scientific malpractice, an anonymous individual or group of individuals accused other soil scientists of being involved in citation manipulation.

Many of the challenges of today raise difficult questions about what the role of scientists should be in relation to issues from climate change and Net Zero policies to implementation of nature-based solutions to reduce risk of flooding, drought and diffuse pollution.
Home / Awards & medals / Young Scientist Outstanding Poster Paper (YSOPP) Awards / 2010 / Lena Noack
Her supervisors are Tilman Spohn and Doris Breuer. She studies in her PhD the mechanism of renewing the surface of a terrestrial body and its implications for the habitability of a planet. Her research is focused on the existence of plate tectonics and in particular on the probability of plate tectonics on Super-Earths, as well as on a reasonable explanation for the young resurfacing on Venus.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student and PhD candidate Presentation (OSPP) Awards / 2025 / Leona Repnik
Dr. Stuart Lane (University of Lausanne) and Prof. Dr. Francesco Comiti (University of Padova). She is part of the ALTROCLIMA project funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation and the Autonomous Province of Bozen-Bolzano, a collaboration between the University of Lausanne and the Free University of Bolzano, aiming to understand Alpine sediment trends under rapid climate change.
