Harry Vereecken Lectureship Award

General Information

The Harry Vereecken Lectureship Award honours a scientist who advances the representation of soil processes in Earth system science, strengthens multidisciplinary applications, and fosters an inclusive, collaborative ISMC community. The awardee delivers the Harry Vereecken Lecture as an ISMC Conference keynote and engages early-career researchers through a mentoring or tutorial event, with materials shared openly via ISMC channels.

What is the awardee expected to do?

Keynote: Deliver the Harry Vereecken Lecture at the ISMC Conference.
Community engagement: Host one interactive ECR session (e.g., clinic, roundtable, or tutorial) within 12 months.
Knowledge sharing: Provide slides/materials for open access via ISMC channels.

Selection emphasis?

Scientific impact: Clear advances in representing soil processes (theory, data, or modelling) with demonstrated uptake beyond soil science.
Community service: Meaningful contributions to ISMC activities and international collaboration.
Mentorship & inclusion: Evident support and inclusive practices for early-career researchers.
Open science: Reproducible code, data, or training materials where feasible.
