Vice-President
This is a six-year term of service (two years as Vice-President, two years as President, two years as Past-President).
The Vice-President leads if the President is unable to, serves on the Goldschmidt Forum and nominates members and chair persons for each society committee (Program, Nominations, Goldschmidt Award, Patterson Award, and Clarke Award).
(select ONE)
RICHARD W. CARLSON Richard Carlson is a staff scientist at the Carnegie Institution of Washington's Department of Terrestrial Magnetism. His research focuses on the use of the elemental and isotopic composition of rocks and minerals to investigate the origin and evolution of the Solar System, terrestrial planets, Moon and Earth.
BERNARD MARTY Bernard Marty, Professor of Geochemistry, Institut Universitaire de France, Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Géologie, Centre de Recherches Pétrographiques et Géochimiques (CRPG-CNRS). Research interests include : origin of isotopic variations in the solar system; early Earth geodynamics and environments; geochemistry of volatile elements (C, N, water, noble gases); mantle geodynamics (ridges, mantle plumes, volcanic provinces); fluid circulations in the crust.
Non-Officer Directors
Non-Officer Directors participate in Board discussion and serve on the Board as voting members.
This is a four-year term of service. As laid out in the Geochemical Society by-laws, two of the six non-officer directors must be located in North America (NA) and two must also be located outside of North America (NNA). The three non-officer shall be selected as follows:
- The first position shall go to the candidate based in North America (NA) with the most votes;
- The second position shall go to the candidate based outside of North America (NNA) with the most votes;
- The final position shall go to the remaining candidate with the most votes regardless of location;
(select THREE)
CATHERINE CHAUVEL (NNA) Catherine Chauvel, Professor, University of Grenoble, France. Research interests include: high temperature geochemistry using trace elements and isotopic systems; studies of volcanic rocks and sediments as tracers of the differentiation; and evolution of the Earth.
YINGWEI FEI (NA) Yingwei Fei, Senior Staff Scientist, Geophysical Laboratory, Carnegie Institution of Washington. Research interests include the composition and structure of the interiors of the Earth and Mars, mantle evolution, core and mantle differentiation, role of water and hydrous phases in a subducted slab and deep mantle, physical properties of materials at high pressure and temperature, and phase transformations and thermodynamic calculations, with special interests to develop collaborations among geochemistry, petrology, mineral physics, and geophysics.
