Poster Session: R.S. TarrAward for Student Research
The Polar Geography and CryosphereSpecialty Groups are pleased to sponsor the annual R.S. TarrAward for student research on any aspect of cryosphericscience. The R.S. Tarraward is given to the undergraduate or graduate student presenting the illustrated paperjudged best in the special R.S. TarrIllustrated Paper Session held during the 2014 Annual Meeting. The recipient of the R.S. Tarraward will receive a cash prize.
The illustrated paper must be completed and presented by the student; however, the paper can be coauthored by the student's advisor.
Illustrated papers will be judged on their originality and contribution to cryosphericscience.
This competition is in honor of Ralph Stockman Tarrwho was an accomplished glacial geologist and geographer. He studied under W.M.
Davis at Harvard. While teaching at Cornell he led numerous scientific expeditions to Greenland and Alaska.
To participate in the R.S. Tarrsession please submit your abstract for an illustrated paperthrough _www.aag.org <http://www.aag.org/>_and send your PIN to venachu@ucla.edu <mailto:venachu@ucla.edu>.
