During a recent meeting of the Royal Astronomical Society in London, the organization’s Gold Medal was presented to Maurice Ewing, director of Columbia University’s Lamont Geological Observatory. The prize, which honors Dr. Ewing’s contributions to marine geophysics, is the first Gold Medal given by the Society specifically for geophysical work. In the future, the RAS will award two Gold Medals, one for astronomical work and another for geophysics.
