Overview

Funder: International Association of Theoretical and Applied Limnology (SIL)

The Tonolli Memorial Award, established in 1985 by the International Association of Theoretical and Applied Limnology (SIL), supports young limnologists from developing countries pursuing graduate degrees. Priority is given to research in biogeochemistry, community composition, and inland water processes. The fund aims to enhance education and research in limnology, fostering the next generation of scientists committed to understanding and preserving aquatic ecosystems.

Information on the Tonolli Fund
The Tonolli Fund of SIL was created in 1985 through a request from Vittorio and Livia Tonolli, well known limnologists at the Istituto Italiano di Idrobiologia in Pallanza, Italy. The purpose of the fund is to provide assistance to young limnologists of developing countries.
The awards committee for the Tonolli Fund will emphasize research and graduate education in limnology. Subjects of highest priority for the Tonolli Fund include the following: cycling (biogeochemistry) of carbon, key nutrients, or other elements known to be important to inland waters; studies of the production of either plant, animal, or microbial biomass and the factors that regulate production; studies of community composition, biodiversity, or factors that regulate these attributes of inland waters; analytical or comparative studies of physical, hydrological, chemical, or biotic processes in all types of inland waters.
