ANNOUNCEMENTS GEOCHEMICAL SOCIETY AWARDS V. M. GOLDSCHMIDT MEDAL This award, consisting of a gold medal and a certificate, shall be awarded for major achievements in geochemistry or cosmochemistry. Such achievements may consist of either a single outstanding contribution, or a series of publications that have had great influence on the field. The Gofdschmidt Medal will normally be awarded annually, but may be reserved at the discretion of Council. F. W. CLARKE MEDAL. This award, consisting of a medal and a certificate, shall be awarded to a young scientist for a single outstanding contribution to geochemistry or cosmochemistry, normally published within five years of the completion of his formal studies. Independence and originality shall be important factors. The Clarke Medal will normally be given annually, but may be reserved at the discretion of Council. Neither award is normally shared, except in highly unusual cases, such as independent discoveries or joint work where the contributions or the COworkers are essentially equal. Members of Council are ineligible for the duration of their term. Past medalists are permanently ineligible. Nominations for either of the above awards are to be submitted to the appropriate Committee Chairman, using a form made up along the following guidelines. Committee Chairmen must receive nominations no later than November lst, 1984, for awards to be given in November, 1985. THE GEOCHEMICAL SC'CIETY GOLDSCHMIDT MEDAL NOMINATION Name: Address: Citizen of: Chief fields of specialization: Biographical sketch: Chief contributions to geochemistry and selected bibliography: Name, Address and Telephone Number of Geochemical Society Member making nomination: Signature of Nominator: Send this form and attachments to: Dr. R.M. Garrels, Department of Marine Science, University of South Florida, 830 First Street South, St. Petersburg, FLA 33701, U.S.A.

1397 Biographical sketch (optional): Name, Address and Telephone Number of Geochemical Society Member making nomination: Signature of Nominator: Send this form and attachments to: Dr. P.M. Bethke, U.S. Geological Survey, National Center Stop 959, Reston. VA 22092, U.S.A. All nominations will be considered by the Medal Committees and will remain active for three years, unless the candidate becomes ineligible on grounds of membership in Council or on one of the Medal Committees.

Awards are made by Council, from between a nominee and an alternate recommended by each Medal Committee. The awards are based solely on scientific merit, without regard to citizenship or membership in the Society. ALFRED TREIBS MEDAL This award, consisting of a gold-filled medal and a certificate, shall be awarded for major achievements, over a period of years, in organic geochemistry. Such achievements shall consist of pioneering and innovative investigations which have made highly significant contributions to the understanding of the origin and fate of organic materials in the geosphere and/or in extra-terrestrial environments. The Treibs Award is normally given annually, but may be omitted in a given year at the discretion of the Executive Committee of the Organic Geochemistry Division of the Society. This award is subject to approval by Council of the Geochemical Society. Nominations should be submitted to: Dr. J.R. Maxwell, Organic Geochemistry Unit, School of Chemistry, The University, Bristol BS8 lTS, U.K.
16th Annual Meeting of the Division for Planetary Sciences of the American Astronomical Society The Hawaii Institute of Geophysics and the Institute for Astronomy of the University of Hawaii will host the 16th Annual Meeting of the Division for Planetary Sciences of the American Astronomical Society. The meeting will be held at the King Kamehameha Hotel, Kailua-Kona, Hawaii from October 9-12, 1984. Contributed reports from all areas of planetary science are welcome. Abstracts in the standard AAS format must be postmarked by August 1 and received by August 10, 1984. Send abstracts to the program chairman, Tom McCord, Planetary Geosciences Division, Hawaii Institute of Geophysics, University of Hawaii, 2525 Correa Road, Honolulu, Hawaii 96822. Questions regarding travel and accommodations should be directed to the local arrangements chairman, David Morrison, Institute for Astronomy, University of Hawaii, 2680 Woodlawn Drive, Honolulu, Hawaii 96822.
