Home / Awards & medals / John Dalton Medal / 2021 / Brian Berkowitz
Berkowitz’s seminal contributions to the study of flow and transport in fractured systems and fracture network characterization and connectivity shed new light on this important phenomenon as related to recharge and spread of contaminants and links well with his studies of anomalous transport (his 2002 review in Advances in Water Resources has attracted well over 1000 citations to date).

The scientists collected air samples on the ground in Malaysia and Taiwan, in the region of the South China Sea, between 2012 and 2014, and shipped them back to the UK for analysis. They routinely monitor around 50 ozone-depleting chemicals in the atmosphere, some of which are now in decline as a direct consequence of the Montreal Protocol.

Principal Interaction Patterns and Principal Oscillation Patterns) and to detect an anthropogenic climate signal against the background noise. Hasselmann was one of the first to understand the role of nonlinear interactions in the formation of natural surface wave fields and the first who derived the energy evolution equation (also known as the kinetic equation) of complex surface wave systems. The generalization of these results represented basic progress in the general theory of stochastic wave processes.

Víctor Carrasco was thus one of the most active authors in the publication of the last revision of the sunspot group number database, in which the group number index is based. Furthermore, after obtaining his PhD, he carried out research visits at Southwest Research Institute (USA) and the University of Oulu (Finland) to collaborate in a new methodology to reconstruct the group number index.
Home / Awards & medals / Henry Darcy Medal / 2007 / Lars Gottschalk
Lars Gottschalk The 2007 Henry Darcy Medal is awarded to Lars Gottschalk for his innovative contributions to stochastic water resources modelling. Being educated in Sweden and Moscow, Lars Gottschalk was appointed Chair of Hydrology at the University of Oslo in the 1980s. Since then he has contributed to an amazingly wide spectrum of topics in hydrology and water resources research.

The generalization of these results represented basic progress in the general theory of stochastic wave processes. A few years later he organised and supervised the JONSWAP wave project that became a most important milestone in our understanding of surface wave properties.
Home / Awards & medals / Milutin Milanković Medal / 2002 / I. Colin Prentice
I obtained my Ph.D. at Cambridge in 1977 and embarked on a career as an itinerant postdoc in several European countries. Soon after getting my first tenured research position (at Uppsala University in 1988), I moved to become Professor of Plant Ecology at Lund University. Then, in 1997, I was invited to become a founder-director of the new Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena.

This photograph shows remnants of the former breach made here in February 1584, now a tidal channel. The marshland visible in the picture is former arable land.
