Awards

Outstanding Student Presentation Awards

The Outstanding Student Presentation Awards (OSPAs) are awarded to promote, recognize and reward undergraduate, Master’s and PhD students for quality research in the geophysical sciences. Each year, sections recruit voluntary judges to assess and score student oral and poster presentations at meetings. Typically the top 3-5% of presenters in each section are awarded an OSPA. Note, Honorable Mentions were awarded starting for the 2020 Fall Meeting.
