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 includes 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; 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 Geochemical Society and European Association of Geochemistry are pleased to announce the 2020 Geochemistry Fellows
Edouard Bard
Collège de France and CEREGE of Aix-en-Provence
Edouard Bard, for his wide-ranging contributions to geochronology, geochemistry, and paleoclimate, including radiocarbon calibration, the history of the carbon cycle, documenting sea surface temperature variability, measuring past sea level changes, establishing the history of solar activity contributions to climate change, and many activities in service to geochemistry.
Liane G. Benning
GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences
Liane Benning, for long and varied contributions to our fundamental understanding of near surface geochemical processes including abiotic and biotic controls on mineral nucleation and growth, and the role of microbes on glacial melting and global climate. She has also played a major role in applying and developing novel nanoscale and spectroscopic tools to quantifying natural processes.
J. Kirk Cochran
Stony Brook University
Kirk Cochran, for his studies of natural radioactive and radiogenic isotopes. Using a very diverse set of isotopes to look at an extremely wide variety of environments, he has made major contributions to our knowledge of rates and processes in the open ocean from Antarctica to the tropics (sedimentation, particle scavenging, export fluxes), coastal bay and lagoon sediments (sedimentation, particle scavenging), groundwater (especially submarine discharge to the ocean), and biogeography (ammonite and nautilus growth rates, lifespans and habitats). He has tackled basic science questions and also environmental problems (metal and radionuclide contamination), and brought his scientific rigor to both areas. His clarity of thinking and ability to explain how the world works through his writing and lecturing is remarkable.
Christian France-Lanord
CRPG - CNRS-Université de Lorraine
Christian France-Lanord, for his work on the evolution of the Earth's climate through geological time and in particular the mechanisms by which mountain ranges consume CO2 from the atmosphere and cool down the planet. He managed to study both the current day erosion of the Himalayan Tibetan plateau and the sediments accumulated in the Bengal fan by developing of new isotopic tools. He trained a large number of students and formed some of the most talented geochemists of the youngest generation.
Baohua Gu
Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Baohua Gu, for his seminal work on elucidating key molecular-scale mechanisms that govern biogeochemical cycling of contaminants, trace metals, and natural organic matter in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
Sidney Hemming
Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory
Sidney Hemming, for her groundbreaking, broad and continued scientific contributions to the fields of sedimentary geochemistry, geochronology, and palaeoceanography and palaeoclimate. She is one of the smartest (isotope) geochemists out there, an awesome mentor, and an inspiration to the many young scientists who have passed through her lab.
Trevor R. Ireland
Australian National University
Trevor Ireland, for highly significant contributions to isotopic chronology, utilizing both terrestrial and extraterrestrial zircons, to trace element geochemistry through microanalysis of zircon and meteoritic hibonite, and to cosmochemistry by revealing primordial isotopic heterogeneities in some of the solar system's first rocks and even in presolar stardust.
Andreas Kappler
University of Tübingen
Andreas Kappler, for being a prominent leader in understanding the biological iron cycle, in both modern and ancient environments. His skill set also extends to using novel technologies to advance our knowledge of the mechanisms underpinning metal-mineral-microbe interactions, specifically with regards to contamination and amelioration.
Syed Wajih A. Naqvi
Council of Scientific & Industrial Research, New Delhi
Syed Wajih A. Naqvi, for his great contributions to aquatic biogeochemistry and for his extensive services to the scientific community. His work has been critical for our present understanding of the biogeochemistry of both oceanic oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) and Indian freshwater systems, and for the roles of these aquatic systems as sources of greenhouse gasses.
Kevin Rosso
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Kevin Rosso, for his genius in recognizing the behavior and function of the electronic band structure, band bending, and the potential charge gradient buildup in semiconducting minerals, and using these highly complex constructs to understand the growth/dissolution, adsorption/desorption, aggregation/disaggregation, and catalytic activity characteristics of these critical minerals in the presence of surrounding fluids and microorganisms.
Caroline Slomp
Utrecht University
Caroline Slomp, for her fundamental and lasting contributions to the integrated understanding of the marine biogeochemical phosphorus cycle in modern and ancient marine sediments, as a harbinger for an unusual number of big advances in marine biogeochemistry, and her extraordinary mentorship role in the community.
Naohiro Yoshida
Tokyo Institute of Technology
Naohiro Yoshida, for opening new avenues of research on the isotope biogeochemistry of light elements by introducing isotopomers and isotopologues with special reference to position specific isotope analysis, mass independent fractionation, and multiple isotope substitution. He also contributed toward establishing a cooperative framework between the Geochemical Society of Japan, GS, and EAG.
