Award Nomination Form
Each year, the Society awards medals of scientific excellence for
long term, outstanding contributors in several areas of sedimentary geology. The
awardees are nominated by members of the society but do not have to be members
themselves. These medals are named in recognition of outstanding geologists in
their honor. SEPM also bestows, at its discretion, Honorary Membership and a
Distinguished Service Award. These awardees are also nominated by the membership
but in this case, must be members themselves.
The other honors that are given by the Society
each year are for excellence in communicating the science. These awards are
chosen by committees that judge the best oral and poster presentations at our
annual meeting and evaluate all of the papers published in our two scientific
journals, JSR and PALAIOS. Thus, each year we also recognize the best technical
presentations. We also include a special category for student presentations.
