for her publication in Tectonics: "Recent tectonic evolution and present stress in the Northern Apennines (Italy)".

and to

Jinqiao Duan

for his publication in Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics: "Lagrangian transport and chaos in the near wake of the flow around an obstacle: a numerical implementation of lobe dynamics".

Louis Néel Medal

David J. Dunlop

for his authoritative contributions to rock magnetism setting the standards for future decades.

Stephan Mueller Medal

Raul Madariaga

for his fundamental achievements in seismology, in particular in the understanding of the physics
of the seismic source.

Vening Meinesz Medal

Anny Cazenave

in recognition of her notable contributions to the application of space geodetic techniques to the study of solid Earth and the oceans.

John Dalton Medal

Peter S. Eagleson

for his outstanding contributions to theoretical hydrology and his tireless promotion of hydrology
as an Earth System science.

Henry Darcy Medal

Malin Falkenmark

for her pioneering work in water resources assessment and her innovative approaches to the sustainable use of water resources.

Fridtjof Nansen Medal

Christian A.J. Le Provost

for his exceptional contributions to our understanding of ocean tides and the use of remote
sensing in the numerical hydrodynamical modelling of this phenomenon.

Vilhelm Bjerknes Medal

Jean-Claude André

for his fundamental studies on the atmospheric boundary layer and its parameterization in large-
scale circulation models.

Milutin Milankovitch Medal

Sir Nicholas J. Shackleton

for his significant contributions to our understanding of past climates by isotope analysis of
ocean sediment cores.

Julius Bartels Medal

Michael E. McIntyre

for his outstanding contributions towards the understanding of middle atmosphere dynamics and
stratosphere-troposphere exchange.

Hannes Alfvén Medal

Gerhard Haerendel

for his pioneering experimental and theoretical work in ionospheric, magnetospheric and
astrophysical plasma physics.

Runcorn-Florensky Medal

Heinrich Wänke

for his pioneering work in establishing planetary sciences within the framework of the geosciences
and for his authoritative contributions to planetary geochemistry and to the exploration of Planet
Mars.

Lewis Frey Richardson Medal

Vladimir I. Keilis-Borok

for his outstanding contributions to the study of the nonlinear dynamics of the lithosphere, in
particular to the development of the concept that the active lithosphere is a hierarchical nonlinear
system.

and to

Raymond Hide

for his pioneering experimental and theoretical studies of the nonlinear dynamics of rotating
fluids, and their application to understanding the dynamics of planetary atmospheres and
interiors.
