Home / Awards & medals / Philippe Duchaufour Medal / 2020 / Georg Guggenberger
He was among a small group of researchers who recognised the importance of linking the investigation of these processes from field to laboratory and within interdisciplinary research groups in order to better comprehend the role that soils play in the terrestrial element cycles.
Home / Awards & medals / Fridtjof Nansen Medal / 2021 / Richard S. Lampitt
This style of work offers a clear example of how Lampitt has moved the field of ocean sciences forward in a substantive and impactful manner.
Home / Awards & medals / Hans Oeschger Medal / 2007 / Raymond S. Bradley
He has a broad interest in paleoclimate reconstruction with a focus on continental archives, allowing to describe and identifying processes at work for relatively recent changes (from the last centuries to the entire Holocene). This work encompasses studies in the Arctic, in the Andes and in Africa, partly dedicated to present-day variability of climate variables or of climate indicators, such as water isotopes.
Home / Awards & medals / Division Outstanding Early Career Scientist Awards / 2018 / Giovanni Ludeno
Now, he is also working in the field of inverse electromagnetic scattering for radar data processing, in subsoil investigations from ground-based platforms and from drones. Another of his fields of research regards the use of terahertz waves for material characterisation in several fields ranging from vegetation monitoring to archaeology.
Home / Awards & medals / Hannes Alfvén Medal / 2019 / Daniel N. Baker
His efforts include chairing national committees on societal and economic impacts of the space weather and the publication in Nature of a paper on the distortion of the Van Allen belts arising from the severe geomagnetic storm in 2003, called the ‘Halloween storm’. He has led several U.S. National Academy studies and reports in this regard.
Home / Awards & medals / Alexander von Humboldt Medal / 2020 / Bojie Fu
Bojie Fu The 2020 Alexander von Humboldt Medal is awarded to Bojie Fu for outstanding research in China and Africa on the ecological effects of land use change balancing agricultural and environmental interests in such a way that realisation in practice was feasible. In the unanimous opinion of the judging committee, the qualifications and record of Bojie Fu make him an exceptional, highly qualified candidate to receive the Alexander von Humboldt Medal.
Home / Awards & medals / Division Outstanding Early Career Scientist Awards / 2020 / Caitlin E. Hicks Pries
After obtaining a PhD from the University of Florida in 2012, Pries became a mother of two children and served as a postdoctoral fellow at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory until 2017 before moving to Dartmouth College. Pries works in the field of terrestrial biogeosciences, and her interest is the terrestrial carbon cycle and how the carbon balance of ecosystems is determined by the interplay of soil and plant processes with climate.
Home / Awards & medals / Division Outstanding Early Career Scientist Awards / 2018 / Victor Vilarrasa
In 2013–2016, he was a post-doctoral research fellow at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, California and at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne. Vilarassa’s research domain focuses on the understanding of the coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical and chemical processes involved in deep fluid circulation.
Home / Awards & medals / Hannes Alfvén Medal / 2011 / Syun-Ichi Akasofu
In 1981 Syun-Ichi Akasofu was named one of the “1000 Most Cited Scientists”. In 2002 he was named one of the “World’s Most Cited Authors in Space Physics” by Current Contents ISI. He has in total received 16 awards and honours from various societies, universities and establishments, such as the AGU, the Royal Astronomy Society, and the Emperor of Japan.
