TheG. K. Gilbert Award is presented annually by the Planetary Geology Division of theGeological Society of America for outstanding contributions to the solution of fundamental problems in planetary geology in the broadest sense, which includes geochemistry, mineralogy, petrology, geophysics, geologic mapping, and remote sensing.[1] Such contributions may consist either of a single outstanding publication or a series of publications that have had great influence in the field. The award is named for the pioneering geologistG. K. Gilbert. This award is not to be confused with theG. K. Gilbert Award for Excellence in Geomorphological Research given by theAmerican Association of Geographers, or the G.K.
