Dear all,
It is worth emphasising that British Geophysical Association
members, and indeed all the geophysicists on this list,
might be candidates for American Geophysical Union
awards. The details are on
http://honors.agu.org/awards-medals-prizes/award-search/all-honors/
and the deadline is 15th March.
The AGU has several awards for the communication of
geophysics and serving the community, including
two for excellence in science journalism and one for
communicating climate science. The journalism
awards are for "any medium except books" so TV
and website articles as well as those in newspapers
and magazines would be eligible.
Beware that for the scientific awards, e.g. the William
Bowie Medal, the nominee is expected to be an AGU
member, unlike for the awards of the GeolSoc and RAS;
but the nominators need not be AGU members.
If you want to nominate someone but need some help,
do contact the BGA via me.
Sheila Peacock, list co-owner.
