The Tectonics and Structural Geology (TS) Division medals are awarded to scientists in recognition of their outstanding contributions to tectonics and structural geology. This medal was established by the TS Division to acknowledge the scientific achievements of Marie Tharp. It is awarded to scientists in recognition of their outstanding contributions to the discovery of the structure of the ocean floors and plate tectonic processes.

Additional guidance on nominating scientists for the TS Division's Stephan Mueller and Marie Tharp medals is available here.
