2024 Elsevier/JQSRT Richard M. Goody Award
This prestigious Elsevier/JQSRT young-scientist
award is named
after Richard M. Goody whose pioneering research has had a profound and long- lasting impact on the
disciplines of atmospheric radiation, remote sensing, and climate science.
The 2024 Goody Award will be

Sensing. The award will be
presented at the 21st Electromagnetic and Light Scattering
Conference (ELS-XXI). The conference venue and time will be
announced later. The award will consist of a
certificate and monetary prize
of 500 USD.
To qualify for
consideration, a nominee:
-
Must be a graduate
or post-graduate student or in his/her early career path with an outstanding record of scholarship;
-
Must
have not received any JQSRT
Young Scientist Award previously;
-
Should have
published in JQSRT
previously, although this
requirement may be
relaxed in exceptional
cases. This requirement is one of the award selection criteria, as this

-
Should be under 37
years of age on 1 July 2024 or finished
his/her PhD within the 10 years preceding that date;

ELS-XXI and attend the award
ceremony.
-
The award
recipient will be invited to publish an invited awardee paper in JQSRT.
The recipient of the 2024
Goody Award will be selected by a distinguished Award Committee, and the award certificate will be presented at the award ceremony during the ELS-XXI conference.
Each nomination package should be submitted, as
a single PDF
file, to Prof.
Ping Yang, at pyang@tamu.edu, Dr. Gorden Videen at gorden.videen@gmail.com, and Prof. M. Pinar Menguc at pinar.menguc@ozyegin.edu.tr by 28
June 2024 (Friday) and should consist of a nomination letter, the nominees CV
and publications list, up to 5 best peer-reviewed journal papers, and up to 3 letters
of support.
2024 Elsevier/JQSRT
Peter C. Waterman Award
This prestigious Elsevier/JQSRT young-scientist award is named after
