Kharaka Award

Countries without traditionally strong geochemistry programs

Summary of Award

The IAGC Kharaka Award is bestowed annually to deserving scientists who have demonstrated outstanding scientific accomplishment from countries affiliated with the Research4life Group A and B Lists used by Elsevier. Awardees may include senior graduate students. The criteria are intentionally broad in order to honor and highlight as many scientists as possible each year from countries without traditionally strong geochemistry programs - so don't hesitate and nominate a colleague! This award was made possible by IAGC member Yousif Kharaka and the many generous donations from our IAGC member community and highlights the excellent work of geochemists outside North America, Europe, Japan, Australia, Taiwan, and New Zealand. The award consists of a framed certificate plus an IAGC membership and

Applied Geochemistry subscription for a term of three (3) years. The recipient will be profiled on the website, IAGC Newsletter, and Elements magazine.
