1. Astronomy

Collection highlights include one of the original charts documenting the detected signal from pulsar CP 1919 on 6 August 1967 (Hewish Papers). Pulsars (rapidly spinning neutron stars) were discovered by Jocelyn Bell Burnell, one of Hewish’s research students.

Recently, EGU announced the 2024 medals and awards to be presented at the General Assembly in April, and the winner of the Geomorphology Division Ralph Alger Bagnold Medal Award is Christian France-Lanord, at the Centre de Recherches Pétrographiques et Géochimiques (CRPG), University of Lorraine-CNRS, France. Christian has made many contributions to the field of geomorphology, primarily in his research exploring sediment geochemistry to understand the influences and interplay of climate and tectonic processes on erosion. Our blog editors questioned Christian to learn more about his background and success in geomorphology.

How would you explain or describe your research in brief?

My research aims to tackle the interactions between climate and tectonics, mostly focused on the Himalayan region. This includes direct responses of erosion to climatic and tectonic settings as well as the long-term impact of mountain erosion on the carbon cycle. The long-term record of erosion is accessible in syntectonic sedimentary records but it also requires improved degree of calibration and observation of modern analogs. For this reason, my research is based on a back and forth between stu
