Home / Awards & medals / Young Scientist Outstanding Poster Paper (YSOPP) Awards / 2009 / Mubashir Aziz
The EGU poster presented focuses on exploring the physical phenomena controlling the time-dependent geotechnical properties of naturally occurring granular soils because in conventional risk assessment approach for slope failures and other geohazards , the ageing effects of soils are often ignored.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Young Scientist Awards / 2006 / Gwenn Elisabeth Flowers
Her research focuses on the physics of water flow beneath ice sheets and on how the operation of the subglacial water system governs the processes that promote fast changes in ice flow and the catastrophic release of subglacial water. These processes become especially prominent when ice masses melt rapidly, as they did at the end of the last Ice Age and as they are expected to do as climatic warming proceeds.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2012 / Shahab Fatemi
Shahab is currently working on the modelling the solar wind plasma interaction with the Moon, and his main topic of interests are modeling and studying the solar wind plasma interaction with the airless bodies. The awarded poster at EGU 2012 presented the results of his recent work about the effects of lunar surface plasma absorption on the solar wind plasma in the night-side of the Moon, published at the Journal of Geophysical Research, Space Physics, 2012.
