The European Geosciences Union awarded its 2017 Petrus Peregrinus Medal<\/a><\/strong> to John Tarduno, a professor of geophysics at the University of Rochester, in recognition of his\u00a0research<\/a> <\/strong>on the evolution of the early Earth\u2019s magnetic field<\/a><\/strong>.

The Petrus Peregrinus Medal is awarded annually for outstanding scientific contributions in the field of magnetism and paleomagnetism. It honors the scientific achievements of Petrus Peregrinus, a 13th<\/sup> century French scholar who wrote the first treatise describing the properties of magnets and the earliest detailed discussion of compass needles.<\/p>\n
