About the Geochemistry Fellow Honor
In 1996, the Geochemical Society and the European Association of Geochemistry established the honorary title of Geochemistry Fellow, to be bestowed upon outstanding scientists who have, over some years, made a major contribution to the field of geochemistry. Recipients of the Goldschmidt, Patterson, EAG Science Innovation, Treibs, and Urey Awards become Fellows automatically.
Scientific excellence is a core value of both the Geochemical Society and European Association of Geochemistry, and it is our privilege, by rewarding it, to take a leading role in its definition. In awarding Geochemistry Fellows, our societies believe it is important to recognize the broad spectrum of scientific achievements that advance geochemistry. Excellence should not be limited to major discoveries and ideas that change paradigms, and not solely evaluated on the basis of the number of papers published in high-impact journals; the nominee's h-index and previously obtained distinctions; nor the amount of funding acquired. Instead, we recognize that scientific eminence, achievement, and impact also encompass sustained and proven contributions that create a dynamic environment essential for scientific progress.
Examples of these include:
- improvements to infrastructure and techniques;
- capacity building-especially in developing countries or emerging disciplines;
- curation of sample collections and databases of long-term scientific significance;
- exceptional editorial contributions;
- communication of the intrinsic excitement of our field to the general public;
- work with policy makers to ensure that their decisions are grounded in rigorous science;
- training the next generation of geochemists;
- and advancing ethics, inclusiveness, and social justice in science.
By recognizing the full diversity of the geochemical community and its many varied contributions we hope to provide a wide range of examples that young scientists can strive to emulate.
The societies will accept nominations for the 2022 Fellows from September 1-October 31, 2021.
The Geochemical Society and European Association of Geochemistry are pleased to announce the 2021 Geochemistry Fellows
Sachiko Amari
Washington University in St. Louis (USA)
Sachiko Amari has made groundbreaking and fundamental contributions to cosmochemistry, especially to the study of carbonaceous presolar grains and noble gases in meteorites. Her work has provided key new insights into the stellar nuclear processes responsible for the synthesis of the chemical elements and into the still mysterious nature of the primary carrier of noble gases in the earliest building blocks of planets.
Wei-Jun Cai
University of Delaware (USA)
Wei-Jun Cai is recognized for his contributions to our understanding of marine biogeochemical processes. He has demonstrated how CO2 uptake from the atmosphere, coastal eutrophication, organic acids, and redox reactions in estuaries, as well as warming and sea-ice loss in the Arctic Ocean have altered marine carbonate chemistry and accelerated coastal and ocean acidification.
Thure E. Cerling
University of Utah (USA)
Thure E. Cerling is recognized for contributions in the field of isotope geochemistry and climatology, having created the sub-discipline of reconstructing past environments using stable isotopes of soil carbonates. He pioneered studies in the isotope physiology and diets of mammals, of novel metrics for shade and soil temperature, and he has developed quantitative models that have shaped the field for generations of scholars.
Fabrice Gaillard
Institute of Earth Sciences at Orléans (France)
Fabrice Gaillard is recognized for his pioneering achievements and contribution to shaping experimental physics of melt, as a prominent tool for describing and understanding the evolution of major Earth and planets reservoirs. More specifically, for his creative and impactful research on electrical conductivity, redox and volatile in magmas.
Janet M. Hergt
University of Melbourne (Australia)
Janet M. Hergt has developed and applied multi-system geochemical techniques to address longstanding problems relating to the origin of magmas in different geodynamic settings. She has also provided outstanding leadership in her discipline, is a highly respected mentor to early career researchers, and a powerful role model for women in science.
Fumio Inagaki
Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (Japan)
Fumio Inagaki is recognized for his contributions to our understanding of the geobiology and geochemistry of the deep microbial biosphere and for his leadership and service, which have fostered rich, interdisciplinary collaborations and promoted substantial growth of the international deep-biosphere community.
Jan Kramers
University of Johannesburg (South Africa)
Jan Kramers is recognized for his fundamental contributions to high and low temperature isotope geochemistry that provided new insights into processes governing Earth's differentiation and chemical evolution. He developed and established analytical methods and facilities that enabled a deeper understanding of Earth's dynamical chemical differentiation in time and space, and educated a successful generation of geochemists.
Wendy Li-Wen Mao
Stanford University (USA)
Wendy Mao has made major contributions to our understanding of minerals under extreme lower mantle and core conditions, including the post-perovskite phase; physical properties of Earth's core and formation mechanism; and the geochemistry of carbon in Earth's mantle, including new structural forms of graphite and carbonate minerals.
Graham Pearson
University of Alberta (Canada)
Graham Pearson is recognized for outstanding contributions to geochemistry and petrology over decades as the leading expert on the age, origin and evolution of the continental upper mantle.
Simon Poulton
University of Leeds (UK)
Simon Poulton has made key contributions to refining the early history of the earth, especially that of the atmosphere and the oceans in deep time. He has notably used a carefully calibrated set of elemental and isotopic proxies that have been widely used by the geochemical community.
Alexander Sobolev
University Grenoble Alpes (France) and Russian Academy of Science
Alexander Sobolev has made ground-breaking studies of magmatic melt inclusions and phenocrysts to demonstrate the unexpectedly large range of primary compositions of mantle-derived melts and for revealing the lithologies and nature of their sources.
Marta E. Torres
Oregon State University (USA)
Marta E. Torres is recognized for her pioneering research and leadership in geochemistry of fluid-rock reactions in marine sediment which profoundly contributed to advancement of a broad range of topics that include carbon cycling, authigenic mineral formation, the deep biosphere and seismogenesis.
Aradhna Tripati
UCLA (USA)
Aradhna Tripati is recognized for fundamental contributions to carbonate clumped isotope geochemistry including equilibrium and kinetic isotope fractionations, development as a paleoceanographic proxy through pioneering work on foraminifera, applications to paleoclimate, mentorship, and contributions to diversity including with the Center for Diverse Leadership in Science and service to the geochemistry and geosciences communities.
Simon Turner
Macquarie University (Australia)
Simon Turner has made key contributions to our understanding of magmatism using U-series combined with petrology and geochronology, to constrain the timescales and sources of arc volcanism.
Meenakshi Wadhwa
Arizona State University (USA)
Meenakshi Wadhwa has made major contributions in cosmochemistry and geochemistry, primarily in solar system chronology and trace element geochemistry to understand the evolutionary history of a variety of solar system bodies. Prof. Wadhwa has made ground-breaking technique advances that have changed the way that high-precision isotopic measurements of planetary materials are made.
Martin Whitehouse
Swedish Museum of Natural History
Martin Whitehouse is recognized for his leadership in secondary ion microscopy applied to a wide range of mineral geochemical questions and for his contributions to Earth history as well as to lunar chronology and Martian meteorites. Through his long-term vision and inexhaustible energy, he has kept the Stockholm SIMS facility at the technological forefront, selflessly supporting the work of numerous visiting scientists, as well as being an exemplary mentor of his own students and postdocs.
