Make a Nomination: Goldschmidt Award

Nomination Requirements

All nominations must include:

• A completed cover sheet. Download the Word Document or the PDF File
• The principal nominator's letter (up to 2 pages), including a discussion of the nominee's major achievements in geochemistry or cosmochemistry that have had great influence on the field. The letter is not expected to cover all of the examples of achievements listed on the previous page. A typical candidate would in fact have demonstrated excellence in only a few of these. Therefore, the nomination should focus on those aspects of the nominee's career that are truly remarkable. This letter may be cosigned by up to 3 additional people.
• One letter of support (maximum of 2 pages): this second letter can be particularly effective if it highlights some aspect(s) of the candidate's career that are not discussed in depth in the principal letter.
• A brief (up to 4 pages) CV for the candidate;
• A listing of the candidate's publications or a link to an online listing.
  
  

Professional Ethics Disclosure

When submitting a nomination, the principal nominator is asked to check one of the following:

1. I certify that, to the best of my knowledge, the person I have nominated has not been sanctioned or found at fault as the result of a complaint, investigation, or other proceeding related to his/her professional conduct (including harassment allegations), and that he/she is not currently the subject of such an investigation.
2. I am aware that the person I have nominated has been sanctioned or found at fault as the result of a complaint, investigation, or other proceeding related to his/her professional conduct, or that he/she is currently the subject of such an investigation, but would nevertheless like to proceed with the nomination.

Please note that selecting the second case is not necessarily disqualifying, but you may be contacted by a member of the GS or EAG Executive or Ethics Committee for a confidential discussion.
