The Edinburgh Geological Society rewards excellence in geology by presenting
annually the Clough Medal and, biennially, the Clough Memorial Award.
The Clough
Medal is presented to a senior scientist who, in the view of the Society's Clough
Committee, has made a significant contribution to knowledge of the geology of
Scotland or the north of England, or a Scottish geologist who has significantly
advanced the knowledge of any aspect of geology.
The Clough Memorial
Award is a monetary award, given to a geologist of British nationality and up
to 35 years old whose research on some aspect of the geology of Scotland or the
north of England is considered as having outstanding merit.
