Now Accepting Submissions!
Nomination Package Requirements
Named section lectures are not required to follow a nomination cycle process. Sections have the flexibility to adopt the process that will best serve their communities in seeking lecture recipients. This lecture is open to nominations. Nominations should include a 2-page maximum cover letter from the nominator outlining the credentials of the nominee and an up-to-date CV for the nominee. The deadline for nominations and these materials is 13 March 2026.
For questions about nomination requirements or the submission process, please contact Lisa McNeil, Tectonophysics Section President.

Posthumous Nominations
AGU does not accept nominations for candidates posthumously.
Duplicate Nominations
