European Geophysical Society Runcorn-Florensky Medal (since 1998) This medal has been established by the Section on Planetary and Solar System Sciences (PS) in recognition of the scientific achievements of Keith Runcorn and Cyril Florensky . It is reserved for scientists for their exceptional contributions to planetology, defined in its widest sense. Runcorn-Florensky Medallists 2002 W.K. Hartmann & G. Neukum 2000 A.T. Basilevsky 1999 H.

Gregory C. Beroza The 2014 Beno Gutenberg Medal is awarded to Gregory C. Beroza in recognition of his outstanding contributions to earthquake seismology. Gregory C. Beroza has been a leader in earthquake seismology since 1988, when he (together with Spudich) showed how to invert strong-motion data for the slip space-time function of a finite fault.
Home / Awards & medals / Division Outstanding Young Scientist Awards / 2012 / André R. Niemeijer
Through Niemeijer’s truly multi-disciplinary approach to understanding rock and fault behaviour in the chemically active environment of the seismogenic zone, his work is having an impact far beyond the world of experimentalists, raising new awareness of the need to incorporate chemical processes and fault rock (micro) structure into quantitative modeling of the seismic cycle.

His main research focuses on the influence of global and regional wildfire on atmospheric composition, especially hydrocarbons and aerosol, in the Upper Troposphere and Lower Stratosphere (UTLS) using remote sensing and reanalysis dataset.

Feistel realised that the properties of seawater, as defined by the 1980 international standard EOS-80, were thermodynamically inconsistent. In a series of papers published in 1993, 1995, 1999, and 2008 he formed a Gibbs function for seawater, from which all of the thermodynamic properties of seawater can be derived by simple mathematical operations such as differentiation.
