GSA Scientific Division Milestones

GSA acknowledges and congratulates the following GSA Scientific Divisions for reaching these milestones:

The Geoarchaeology Division is 45 years old. Established in
1977, this Division provides a forum for the presentation and dis-
The Environmental & Engineering Geology Division is 75 years cussion of papers on archaeological geology in order to stimulate

ability of geologists to identify, characterize, and mitigate adverse
geological and environmental conditions and hazards affecting
human safety and the built environment. The Division promotes
research and education on an immense array of disciplines ranging
from geologic hazards, hydrogeology, environmental geology, eco-
nomic and mining geology, geoinformatics, geomechanics, remote
sensing, and others.

The Limnogeology Division is 20 years old. Established in
2002, the Division encourages research on both ancient and mod-
ern lakes around the world, the collaboration of scientists from all
disciplines on lake research, and the fostering of student research
and careers in lake studies.

The Quaternary Geology and Geomorphology Division is
65 years old this year. The purpose of the Division is to bring
together scientists from all backgrounds, communities, and age
groups who are interested in Quaternary geology and geomorphol-
ogy to facilitate presentation and discussion of ideas and to pro-
mote research and publication of results in those fields of geology.
