Congratulations to Jerry Mitrovica - Royal Society of Canada

Please join us in congratulating Jerry Mitrovica for his election into Royal Society of Canada.  Quoting from the Royal Society's web page "The Royal Society of Canada (RSC): The Academies of Arts, Humanities and Sciences of Canada was established in 1882 as the senior Canadian collegium of distinguished scholars, artists and scientists. It is Canada’s National Academy. The primary objective of the Society is to promote learning and research in the arts, the humanities and the natural and social sciences."  Jerry is being recognized "for seminal contributions to the theory of planetary deformation and patterns of sea-level change that occur in response to surface loading and mantle convection, with applications to the mantle viscosity structure, orbital history, rotational stability, ice-age terminations and global warming" and was honored at an induction ceremony on Saturday, November 22.  Please join us in congratulating him on this significant honor!
