WHEELER J. NORTH AWARD
The Southern California Academy of Sciences presents the Wheeler North Award for Scientific Excellence to recognize and encourage outstanding contributions, both to scientific knowledge regarding Southern California and to the region’s scientific community. The award, established to advance the Academy’s mission, was inaugurated in 2004. It is named in honor of the late Professor Wheeler J. North, pioneering marine biologist and environmental scientist, whose life’s work exemplified a passionate commitment to excellence in research and service. This is not an annual award, but one that is given occasionally as deemed appropriate by the Board of the Academy.
