Prof. Kari Cooper has published a sustained series of papers that use U-series isotopes to establish the timescales of magmatic processes during crustal magma storage. These advances embody everything the Bowen Award is designed to honor. Uniquely, s...

Yuji Sano has made fundamental contributions to isotope geochemistry, volcanology, and earthquake monitoring. His study of the distribution of helium isotopes in Japan constitutes an extraordinary advance in our understanding of the structure of volc...

It is an honor to introduce Peter Ulmer, one of the winners of the 2022 Norman L. Bowen Award of the AGU Volcanology, Geochemistry, and Petrology section. Peter’s breadth of approaches spans experimental petrology, field geology, and magma rheolog...

Mike Walter is an experimental petrologist who, like Bowen, asks major questions about Earth. His career began with the resolution of a large number of questions surrounding the compositions of melts and residue produced during partial melting of ...

Graham Pearson merits the 2019 Norman L. Bowen Award for adding to our fundamental understanding of igneous processes in the upper mantle through studies of volcanic rocks, exhumed mantle sections, subcontinental mantle samples, and diamonds and thei...
