Home / Awards & medals / Henry Darcy Medal / 2020 / Xavier Sánchez-Vila
He is in fact studying, in close collaboration with biologists and ecohydrologists, the impact of biogeochemical processes on water flow in soils and sediments and is unveiling how the interplay between biofilm formations and changes in hydraulic properties of the subsurface (e.g., bio-clogging) affect the performance of artificial recharge ponds.
Home / Awards & medals / Division Outstanding Early Career Scientist Awards / 2023 / Hana Jurikova
Since obtaining a PhD from the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel (2018), Hana Jurikova has developed skills in collecting, analysing and interpreting biogeochemical signals archived in marine sediments. In particular, Hana Jurikova has been at the forefront of developing the use of Boron isotopes to reconstruct the variability of oceanic pH and CO2 concentrations from ancient fossil samples.
Home / Awards & medals / Louis Agassiz Medal / 2009 / Eric W. Wolff
Eric W. Wolff The 2009 Louis Agassiz Medal is awarded to Eric W. Wolff for his outstanding contributions to the study of the chemical composition of snow cover and ice cores and their use in the determination of past climates, pollution and atmospheric chemistry. Dr Eric’s Wolff’s major contributions to glaciology have been in the analysis and interpretation of chemical species in snow and in ice cores and the understanding of glacial cycles.
Home / Awards & medals / Julius Bartels Medal / 2008 / Victor A. Sergeev
Sergeev’s success stems from his seminal interest and experience in using a wide variety of both ground-based and space-borne instrumentation to study space plasma processes. Already in his early works he interprets ionospheric flows and auroral signatures in terms of plasma motions in the high-altitude magnetosphere.

He received the CNRS Bronze medal in 1990, the Gay-Lussac Humboldt Prize in 2004, and the CNRS Silver Medal in 2007. An initiator of the EGU journal Climate of the Past, he is currently one of the co-editor in chief of this journal.

“Over the Iberian Peninsula, for example, summer mean temperature is projected to increase by up to 5°C by the end of this century,” says Feyen. In addition to climate warming, intensive water use will further aggravate drought conditions by 10-30% in southern Europe, as well as in the west and centre of the continent, and in some parts of the UK.
Home / Awards & medals / Portrait / Lewis Fry Richardson
Richardson was the first not only to suggest numerical integration of the equations of motion of the atmosphere, but also to attempt to do so by hand, during the First World War. This work, as well as a presentation of a broad vision of future developments in the field, appeared in his famous, pioneering book "Weather prediction by numerical processes" (1922).
