1 Introduction to the Friendship Award The Friendship Award is the People's Republic of China's highest award for foreign experts who have made outstanding contributions to the country's economic and social progress. Every year, 50 foreign experts are selected for the award, while 100 can qualify at certain anniversary celebrations. A total of 1,249 foreign experts, from 67 countries and regions have received the Chinese government s Friendship Award, since Up till now, altogether 11 foreign geoscientists recommended by the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences were conferred on the Friendship Award due to their significant contributions to the development of geosciences in China. 1
2 Winners of the Friendship Award Recommended by the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences Prof. Burrell Clark Burchfiel Prof. Burrell Clark Burchfiel is an American structural geologist. Born in Stockton, California, he earned his Ph.D. in 1961 at Yale University. His first academic appointment was to the Geology Department at Rice University. He is the Schlumberger Professor of Geology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). His research interests include origin, development, and structural evolution of the continental crust. His current work involves study of the geological history and evolution of the Tibetan plateau. Prof. Burrell Clark Burchfiel was conferred on the Friendship Award in
3 Prof. Paul Robinson Prof. Paul Robinson from the Department of Earth Sciences, Dalhousie University, Canada has long been engaged in the research in ophiolites and oceanic lithosphere. He has worked on ophiolites in Oman, Cyprus, Canada, USA and China, including the diamond-bearing peridotites of Tibet and their podiformchromitites. He has accumulated rich experience through participation in a number of deep sea and ocean drilling programs. Prof. Robinson has carried out long-term cooperation with the researchers from the Institute of Geology, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences on mantle minerals in Tibet. Being a member of the China Continental Scientific Drilling Program, he has offered constructive suggestions for the successful operation of the program and given a lot of help in sample collection and analyses. His long-term cooperation with Chinese geologists has also produced a number of jointly published papers. Prof. Paul Robinson was conferred on the Friendship Award in
4 Prof. Paul Tapponnier Prof. Paul Tapponnier from the Institute of Earth Physics of Paris is widely recognized as one of the foremost scientists of his generation in neotectonics. In 1998, Prof. Tapponnier worked with the Chinese research team led by Academician Xu Zhiqin from the Institute of Geology, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences in conducting research on structural evolution in the middle Altyn Tagh Fault and eastern Kunlun Fault Zone in the northern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. After long-term collaborative research, they have developed a deeper understanding of the formation, evolution and extension mode of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and obtained great achievements in the fields of the slip rate, earthquake reoccurrence interval, deformation characteristics and tectonic evolution of large-sized strike slip faults since the Holocene in the northern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Since 1998, over 20 papers have been jointly published by Prof. Tapponnier and the Chinese geologists, and 2 of the papers were published in Science. His efforts have not only pushed forward the study in the formation, evolution and uplifting of the plateau and the process of environmental change, but also helped enlarge the influence of Chinese geologists in the international geoscience community. Meanwhile, the collaborative research has significantly facilitated the capacity building for participating young Chinese geologists. Prof. Paul Tapponnier was conferred on the Friendship Award in
5 Dr. Sergey I. Andreev Dr. Sergey I. Andreev currently serves as the Head of the Department for Geology and Mineral Resources of All-Russian Research Institute for Geology and Mineral Resources of the World Ocean (VNIIOkeangeologia) and a Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Dr. Andreev has long been devoted to the research in ocean polymetallic nodule and cobalt-rich manganese crusts. He has accumulated rich experience through participation in a number of ocean expeditions and carried out in-depth research in oceanic mineral resources. Since 1992, Dr. Andreev has been active in promoting academic exchanges between the Institute of Mineral Resources, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences and VNIIOkeangeologia. His efforts have greatly improved Chinese geologists knowledge of the up-to-date research developments in seabed metals, energy, seabed tectonics, deposits, geophysics, cobalt crusts samples and etc in the Russian and international geoscience communities. Due to his important contributions to the investigation and study of oceanic mineral resources in China, Dr. Sergey I. Andreev was conferred on the Friendship Award in
6 Prof. Larry Brown conferred on the Friendship Award in 2001 Prof. Larry Brown from the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Cornell University is a prestigious geophysicist long been engaged in deep seismic investigations. After earning Ph.D. in geological sciences in Cornell in 1977, he has been participating in Consortium for Continental Reflection Profiling (COCORP) programme in Cornell and many major international projects in deep seismic investigations. Prof. Brown is a Fellow of the Geological Society of America and a Member of the American Geophysical Union, the Society of Exploration Geophysicists, and the European Geosciences Union. He once served as the Vice-President of the International Lithosphere Program (ILP) and editor of Acta Geoscientica Sinica. Prof. Brown has contributed significantly to promoting substantial exchanges and comprehensive cooperation between Chinese and American geoscience communities in deep seismic investigations of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. He has been one of the leading American scientists in collaborating with Academician Zhao Wenjin from the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences to have successfully carried out the International Deep Profiling of Tibet and the Himalayas (INDEPTH) Programme and played a key role in the operation of the project. The project has obtained a series of new findings and important achievements, and greatly promoted multilateral scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation among the geologists and geophysicists from China, America, Germany and Canada participating in the project. Prof. Larry Brown was conferred on the Friendship Award in
7 Prof. Meng Xianlai, President of Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences (CAGS), confers on Dr. Wolfgang Eder the title of the CAGS Honorary Research Fellow in 2005 Dr. Wolfgang Eder is a senior advisor to the Global Geopark Network. He served as the Director of UNESCO s Division of Earth Sciences and Secretary of the International Geoscience Program (IGCP) from April 1992 to December During his term as the Director of UNESCO s Division of Earth Sciences and IGCP Secretary, Chinese researchers altogether participated in 43 IGCP projects, accounting for 41.7% of the total on-going IGCP projects during that period of time, and the number of IGCP projects with Chinese geologists as Leaders or Co-leaders increased by a large margin to 20 (9 as Leaders and 11 as Co-leaders). In February 2004, Dr. Eder presided over the 32 nd Session of IGCP Scientific Board, at which a decision was made to give unanimous support for the establishment of the International Research Center on Karst in Guilin, China. Meanwhile, Dr. Eder helped introduce the concept of geoparks to China in the 1990s and rendered great support for the construction and development of Geoparks in China. He carried out a number of on-site investigations to aspiring Chinese geoparks and put forward valuable suggestions on the planning and sustainable development of geoparks from the geoscientfic perspective. Dr. Wolfgang Eder was conferred on the Friendship Award in
8 Chinese Vice Premier Hui Liangyu confers on Prof. William Compston the Friendship Award in 2006 Prof. William Compston from the Australian National University is a world-renowned isotope geologist. Being a pioneer in the research on isotopic geochronology, the techniques of isotopic geology and the development of mass spectrometer, he designed Sensitive High Resolution Ion Microprobe (SHRIMP) and developed the new technique for SHRIMP U-Th-Pb zircon dating.
