Scott Wing—Presentation of the 2017 Schuchert Award of the Paleontological Society
the ‘Friends of Plants’ dinners at GSA. As one of Caroline’s recommenders for this award wrote: she is “…an utterly humble and unselfish scientist…an ecosystem builder rather than a top predator.” It is truly an honor to introduce Caroline Strömberg— with thanks for shaping our field’s ecosystem and hope that she will continue to do so for epochs to come.
