The Lewis Penny Medal is aimed at a young (normally less than 35 years old) or new research worker who has made a significant contribution to the Quaternary stratigraphy of the British Isles and its maritime environment. This is notionally taken to mean Britain, Ireland and surrounding offshore areas but adjacent areas of continental Europe that have relevance to the British Isles may also be taken into account. Quaternary Stratigraphy is considered here to include both Pleistocene and Holocene records and to be broad-based, encompassing lithostratigraphy, chronostratigraphy, biostratigraphy or other relevant fields.
Please do not add any further bibliographic references; however, feel free to refer to (or cite from) the candidate’s submitted page of bibliographic information if required (no additional bibliographic lists will be considered).
(e.g. contributions to field or discussion meetings, promoting public understanding of Quaternary stratigraphy) that you feel should be taken into account.
