Dr. Hofmann's research interests include biological-physical interaction, biological and ecological models as well as physical oceanography. She has been active in guiding several international programs focused on the Southern Ocean (Southern Ocean GLOBEC, ICED and IMBER).
Established in 1962, the Fellows program recognizes AGU members who have attained acknowledged eminence in the Earth and space sciences as valued by their peers and vetted by a committee of Fellows. The primary criterion for evaluation of scientific eminence is a major breakthrough or discovery, paradigm shift, or sustained impact. Only one AGU member in 1000 is recognized as a fellow. The list of all Fellows elected in 2013 is given in the EOS(pdf) article.
