Te Tohu Taiao
Nominations are invited for the Te tohu taiao award (formerly NZES award). This award is presented annually to recognise individuals who have made outstanding contribution to the study and application of ecological science. The award is made to the person(s) who have published the best original research in ecology of New Zealand, and its dependencies (including the Ross Dependency) or person(s) who have made the most outstanding contribution to applied ecology particularly conservation and management. NB. This award used to be presented to members only but a council decision in 2006 supported the recommendation to make non-members eligible.
Please email any nominations for this award to [email protected] by June 30th 2012. Nominations should also include a statement of support.
