AGU Fellow
Jan, 2012
Recipients:
F. Michael Flasar (693), Anthony D. Del Genio (611), James A Slavin (670)
NASA scientists figure prominently in the distinguished group honored as Fellows of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in 2012. Dr. F. Michael Flasar, a planetary scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., and Dr. Anthony D. Del Genio, a physical scientist at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), New York, have been named AGU Fellows. Dr. James Slavin, who recently moved from NASA Goddard to the University of Michigan, was also named a Fellow.
Dr F. Michael Flasar of the Planetary Systems Laboratory, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, was awarded the John C. Lindsay Memorial Award for Space Science, in recognition of his very substantial and fundamental contributions to planetary and atmospheric science as Principal Investigator of the Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS) instrument. Dr. Flasar is an active, hands-on leader involved in every aspect of the instrument operations and analysis, and the scientific output of this instrument would be greatly diminished without his capable direction and leadership. Mike is perhaps best known for his insightful work on Saturn¹s giant moon Titan using Voyager and Cassini data, and he is rightly regarded as one of the foremost experts on the meteorology of Titan.
GISS Best Publication Award
Apr, 2010
Recipients:
Anthony D. Del Genio (611), Richard K Achterberg (693), F. Michael Flasar (693)
The article "Saturn atmospheric structure and dynamics" by Dr. Anthony D. Del Genio et al. was voted the best research publication of 2009 by the staff of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies. Among Del Genio's co-authors were Richard K. Achterberg and F. Michael Flasar of the GSFC Planetary Systems Laboratory. The paper was published in the book Saturn from Cassini-Huygens.
